What causes this issue?

You should not create vendor master purchasing data for purchasing
organizations if a reference purchasing organization, whose reference
refers to the area vendor master, is assigned to it.
If such a reference purchasing organization is assigned to your
purchasing organization, then the purchasing data of the reference
purchasing organization is used if you create a purchase order for the
purchasing organization.
As a purchasing organization can be assigned subsequently to a
reference purchasing organization, you are prevented from changing the
vendor master purchasing data for this purchasing organization.
