You want to change the profit center but material stock still exists

What causes this issue?

You want to change the profit center in the material master record.
However, changing the profit center could lead to inconsistencies in FI
because stock data already exists for this material.
&EXAMPLES&:
Stock data already exists for a material and was posted with profit
center 'A' according to the current assignment in FI. If you change the
profit center in the material master (for example, to 'B') and the
current stock is consumed, none of the old stock would be used up in FI
(with profit center 'A'), and there would be a negative material stock
posted on the new account assignment (profit center 'B').
If there are price differences for the material on profit center 'A' and
these are only offset in FI after the profit center was changed and were
therefore offset against profit center 'B', this causes more problems.

System Response

The action is terminated.

How to fix this error?

If you want to enable the profit center to be changed, proceed as
follows:
Determine the potential effects of a profit center change on the
corresponding balance sheet in FI.
