alternate stock category is recorded in one of the previous deliveries
or the current delivery, or consignment goods are being delivered. A
partial delivery is not possible in this case, however, as partial
deliveries must have the same stock category.

  SAP Error Message:
  WRF_CONS004 Cons.: Partial deliveries with consignment not possible
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to create a partial delivery for a sales order item that is flagged as a consignment item. In SAP, consignment stock is stock that is stored at the customer’s premises but still owned by the vendor until it is consumed or withdrawn by the customer.
  Partial deliveries are not allowed for consignment stock items because the entire consignment stock quantity must be delivered or handled as a whole. The system restricts partial deliveries to avoid inconsistencies in stock ownership and billing processes.
  
  Explanation:
  
  Consignment stock is managed differently from regular stock.
  Partial deliveries imply that only a portion of the ordered quantity is delivered, which conflicts with the consignment stock handling logic.
  The system enforces this restriction to maintain data integrity and proper stock and billing management.
