Symptom
In configuration activity "101718: Set Up Confirmation Control", error message "With &&, the last confirmation cat. must be GR-relevant (please correct)" (ME 130) occurs when saving a confirmation sequence without GR-Relevant set on the last entry.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Open configuration activity 101718: Set Up Confirmation Control.
- Select confirmation control key && and navigate to Confirmation sequence.
- Create or maintain a sequence entry with:
- Confirmation category: AB (Order Acknowledgment)
- Reference date: 2 – Delivery date minus monitoring time
- GR-Relevant flag: not set
- Save.
- Observe the error dialog and that the entry is not saved.
Cause
- This is a standard data consistency validation: in any confirmation sequence, the last confirmation category must be marked GR-relevant. Saving is blocked if the final category is not GR-relevant.
- On save, the system validates all maintained confirmation control keys and their restrictions, not only the one currently edited; the message can originate from any key whose last confirmation category is not GR-relevant.
Resolution
- Review all maintained confirmation control keys in activity 101718 and open their Confirmation sequence entries.
- Identify any sequence where the last confirmation category is not marked GR-relevant.
- For each affected sequence, either set the GR-Relevant indicator on the appropriate final confirmation category or add a GR-relevant confirmation category as the last step.
- Save the configuration and verify that the error log no longer appears.
