2428835 - When are messages 06 078 and 06 042 issued?

Symptom

You create a purchase order (PO) with reference to a contract in ME21N. The system might issue messages 06078 ('Target quantity exceeded by ... ') or 06042 ('Target value of contract ... exceeded by ...').

You find that 06078 is issued as soon as you enter the contract number and the PO quantity that would exceed the target quantity of the contract.

However, 06042 is not issued when you enter the contract number and the quantity/price, but only when you press Check or save the PO.
