The configuration of the item (VBAP-CUOBJ) makes reference to configuration data that no longer exists. The field VBAP-CUOBJ is with a string starting with '9999', which means in a previous processing step, a configurable material was replaced with another material in the configuration. However, the original material could not be deleted from sales document.

It's recomended to report an case to SAP with the document number as well as the written permission to reset the inconsistent configuration.

With the info above, SAP will help to run report RCU_CHECK_CONFIGURATION to reset the CUOBJ back to 000000000000000000. Then the sales document can be accessed in Fiori App 'Change Sales Documents' or the change mode of 'Manage Sales Quotations'. Afterwards the configuration of the relevant sales document items needs to be maintained manually if necessary.
