SAP Error: Improper Commodity code check on line 00010 of PO XXXXXX

[Former Member]

User is trying to increase the quantity of a PO and is receiving error of Improper commodity code. I have troubleshooted this issue for the user and was able to confirm that the commodity code used in the PO and the Purchase requisition is the same that is setup in the material master for this material. Also verified the PIR for this material and it also has the same commodity code as the one used for this PO. Even though this information is correct the system continues to generate this error. What am I missing? Please help SAP Gurus.

frankly spoken, I think you missed to check the details of the message to find out whether this is a standard message or a home made message.

I have no such message in my system.

The SAP standard would check against table T604, using the country of your PO plant (T001W-LAND1) and the commodity code.

An error would then indicate that customizing was removed despite of being used in documents.

However, the message that you posted looks home made, and you should talk to your colleagues and local support to know the reason.
