  SAP Message: WSTRN095
  Text: Prepack articles for generic article &1 will be posted
  
  1. Cause
  The message WSTRN095 is a warning message (not an error) that appears during the posting of goods movements or inventory transactions involving generic articles that are managed with prepack articles in SAP Retail.
  
  Generic article: A generic article is a kind of "parent" article that groups several related articles (e.g., different sizes or colors).
  Prepack articles: These are articles that are packed together in predefined quantities (e.g., a pack of 5 T-shirts of different sizes).
  
  When you post a goods movement for a generic article that has associated prepack articles, SAP warns you that the system will actually post the movement for the prepack articles linked to the generic article, not just the generic article itself.
  This is because inventory is managed at the prepack article level, and the system needs to update stock quantities for these individual prepack articles.
  
  2. Solution
  
  Understand the message: This is an informational warning to make you aware that the posting will affect the prepack articles, not just the generic article.
  No correction needed if expected: If you intended to post the movement for the generic article and know that the system manages inventory at the prepack level, you can safely ignore this warning.
  Check prepack configuration: If this behavior is unexpected, verify the configuration of the generic article and its associated prepack articles in the system.
  Posting at prepack level: If you want to post directly at the prepack article level, consider doing so to avoid confusion.
  Suppress warning (optional): If the warning is not useful, you can check with your SAP Retail consultant or basis team if it can be suppressed or handled differently via message control.
