Posted on by 2
Hi,
we have generated a Subcontracting order from a production order but when we select 'Create Trasf, Ord to Subcontractor' systems shown the following message: Components to send to subcontractor do not exist.
As you can see in the attach document, the production order have the relative component.
Can you help us to resolve this issue?
Thank you
Andrea

    Error when try to create a trasfer order to Subcontractor
    Hi,
     
    there’s no standard “Create Transfer Order to Subcontractor” action in vanilla Business Central (that button typically comes from localizations/ISV add-ons). In standard BC you do it like this:
    What to do instead
    1. Create the subcontracting PO from the Subcontracting Worksheet (ties to the prod. order/routing op).
    2. Ship components to the Subcontractor Location using regular Transfer Orders (one per from-location as needed). MRP can also suggest transfers to that location once demand exists there.
    3. Make sure on the Prod. Order Components the lines have Operation No. set and Supply to Subcontractor (or equivalent) flagged; release/refresh the prod. order so they flow into the worksheet.
    If you do see a “subcontracting order → send materials” function, you’re likely on a localization or an ISV app that adds that logistics flow—process differs there
