Symptom

You receive a Delivery from your Supplier which contains Products that are not included in your Purchase Order ABC (ABC represents the Purchase Order ID), but you wish to keep the items. However, when you try to create Supplier Delivery Notification (Inbound Delivery Notification) to post the Goods as Unplanned Goods Receipt, the system displays the error message "The related purchase order is invalid or does not exist.
