Understanding the 'Nothing to Handle' Error in Dynamics 365 Business Central
Background
When working with Dynamics 365 Business Central, users can encounter various errors during their workflows. One error that can occur is "Nothing to Handle." This error often arises when attempting to create a pick list for transferring raw materials to production consumption bins.
Common Causes of the Error
-
Insufficient Inventory Levels: The most frequent cause of this error is that the available quantity of a required component is lower than the quantity on hand. Even if you see sufficient inventory in stock, Business Central considers several factors that can reduce the available quantity:
- Reservations: If the item has been reserved for other orders, it won't be available for the current pick.
- Pending Picks: Items already on pick lines but not yet handled will not be available for another pick.
-
Location Configuration: The error can also be influenced by the configurations and rules set for different locations in Business Central.
Troubleshooting Tips
-
Check Inventory Levels: Use the Pick Worksheet or Bin Contents page to check the actual available quantity of the items:
- Pick Worksheet: Allows you to check what can be picked for an order.
- Bin Contents Page: Helps you see the available quantity of items in specific bins.
-
Review Location Setup:
- Ensure the location configurations align with your picking needs.
-
Review Warehouse Setup:
- Enable "Stop and Show Error Messages" to get detailed information on why the pick creation failed.
Conclusion
The 'Nothing to Handle' error in Dynamics 365 Business Central can be frustrating, but by understanding the potential causes and leveraging the available tools and configurations, it can be effectively resolved. Checking inventory levels, understanding location configurations, and using the right setup options in the warehouse are key to addressing this error efficiently.
