3608978 - Conversion of Warning message to Error Message for Sales Document

  • Order Quantities are allowed to change even after it is delivered in Sales Order.
  • The expectation is for the system to throw an error instead of a warning, preventing the change when the order quantity is set lower than the already delivered quantity.
  • Message V4083: "Item &1: Order quantity smaller than delivery quantity: &2 &3".
