• Message number: 622

• Message text: In &2 days: Description of material &1 can no longer be changed

What causes this issue?

The material description must not be changed in Portuguese or in the
logon language if the material has been used in documents that have been
posted with a Portuguese digital signature (in a Portuguese company code
or in a Portuguese organizational unit of a foreign company code).
This restriction takes effect 90 days after a document with a Portuguese
digital signature has been posted and applies to all changes, including
the correction of descriptions containing errors.
When a user tries to change the description of a material after the 90
days have expired, the system proceeds as follows:
The system checks if the material description exists in Portuguese. If
this is the case, the system blocks changes to the Portuguese
description.
If a Portuguese description does not exist, the system checks if a
description exists in the logon language. If this is the case, the
system blocks changes to the description in the logon language.
Note that missing descriptions can always be entered, regardless of the
logon language.

System Response

Since the 90 days have not expired yet, the system allows you to change
the description.
Note that until you run the report
<DS:RE.SIPT_MASTER_DATA_MIGRATION>Record Customers Used in Invoices
with Dig. Signature (PT)</> (<AB>SIPT_MASTER_DATA_MIGRATION</>), the
system blocks master data changes for all materials that might be used
in a document with a Portuguese digital signature (that is, materials
that are assigned to company codes for which documents with Portuguese
digital signatures can be created).
After you have run the report, master data changes are blocked only if
the material has been used in a document with a Portuguese digital
signature and the 90 days have expired.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
