How To Fix WSTI_CALC068 - Item written off but unposted POS transactions still exist in PIPE

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: WSTI_CALC - Physical Inventory Messages: Book Inv. Calc. at Count Time

• Message number: 068

• Message text: Item written off but unposted POS transactions still exist in PIPE

What causes this issue?

The book inventory has been calculated and the inventory difference
written off for this item. However, there are POS transactions in the
PIPE that are relevant for this item and that have not yet been
transferred to the ERP system. This means that if you were to
recalculate the book inventory for the count time, this could lead to a
different result. However, since the difference has already been written
off, which means that physical inventory is completed, no further
changes can be made to the item.

System Response

The system displays this message as the result of an analysis when the
POS transactions are displayed for the inventory document.

How to fix this error?

Find out why additional relevant POS transactions have been transferred
to the PIPE after the book inventory was calculated for the count time
and the differences were written off. Make sure this does not happen
again.
You can restart the function for displaying the POS transactions after
you have posted these POS transactions to the ERP system. In this case,
an additional message is displayed indicating whether a different value
would have resulted from recalculating the book inventory. If this would
have resulted in a different value, you should consider repeating
physical inventory for this material.

Procedure for System Administrators

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
