Hi experts, we've been having trouble with the profit center in the articles in the centers. When we change it through 'MM42' the system checks if the store has stock with that profit center and in case SAP responds with error and that's ok. However if we insist in saving the article master data, SAP allows us to save the record with the new profit center despite of the error.
We've been looking a solution to this issue and found the SAP Notes 1595299 - MM42: Missing checks when data saved again which says:

Release Status Released for Customer
Component IS-R-BD-ART Articles
Priority Correction with medium priority
Category Program error
Symptom
You change an article in transaction MM42. When you do this, fields (such as the profit center) in views or organizational levels that were not accessed are changed via reference handling. If a check error occurs when you save, and you then save again immediately, not all of the checks
are performed again and the article may be saved with changes that are not allowed. Incorrect changes in the case of the profit center may result in inconsistencies in FI, for example, as described in Note 1057674.
Other Terms
MM42, MARC-PRCTR, PRCTR
Reason and Prerequisites
There is a program error.
We implemented it but it doesn't work. We already checked the changes in the source code and the changes are there.
Anyone who has experienced this issue?
Best regards
