Valuated project stock not allowed with customer stock

A purchase order or account-assigned procurement document fails because incompatible project-stock and customer-stock settings are combined.

Likely root causes

  1. The WBS/project setup requests valuated project stock while the procurement item also carries customer-stock logic.
  2. Account assignment and special-stock indicators conflict.
  3. The wrong item category, account assignment category, or WBS element was chosen.

What to inspect

  1. PO item account assignment and special-stock indicators.
  2. WBS/project stock settings for the assigned project.
  3. Sales-order/customer-stock reference if one is present.

Resolution path

  1. Confirm whether the business process requires project stock or customer stock.
  2. Correct the account assignment, special-stock indicator, or project setup to the intended model.
  3. Do not change stock valuation behavior without PS/MM/Finance approval.
  4. Recreate or update the PO item and retest the follow-on goods movement.
