1. Enter app "Post Goods Receipt for Inbound Delivery".
2. Fill in Inbound Delivery.
3. Check 'Auto-Create Serial Numbers'.
4. Click Post, see error raised.

The reason is that the app "Post Goods Receipt for Inbound Delivery" neither knows the serial numbers maintained on the inbound delivery, not does it update the serial numbers in the inbound delivery at posting. Therefore, using the App “Post Goods Receipt for Inbound Delivery” to post goods receipt for such an inbound delivery might end up in an inconsistent state with different serial numbers in the material document and on the inbound delivery. That is the reason why it is prevented by the error message. 

Use app "Change Inbound Delivery"(VL32N) to post goods receipt for the inbound delivery.
