Error Message KE396-Inconsistancy between a document field and prof.segment

[Former Member]

Hello Guys,

I am getting this error, when I try to post goods receipt the direct shipment inbound delivery XXXXXXXX

Material master field selection was different when we set up the material.

When I checked the online, it mentioned about the operation rule in KEDR set up may not be set up correctly (Error message KE396).

The error message is " Inconsistancy between a document field and profitability segment number".Anyone please suggest me where to look,I checked in KEDR and KEQ3(made the sales order field usable,didnt work).What could be wrong in these fields.

Do I need to look somewhere else.Please any help will be greately appreciated.

Regards

Itzaz.

There seems to be conflict between user defined derivations and SAP standard rules in atleast one of the characteristic value of PSEG.

Please check the derivation rules (KEDR). Have you created any derivation for key fields such as sales order, order, customer and so on?
