Good day,

The error message indicates that there is not enough inventory for the item.

Could you please check the on-hand inventory?

Best regards,
Laurens van der Tang

Thank you Laurens and Adis - all of the stock we had has been picked on the work item and is showing on the user locations. I've tried adjusting more stock in on the user but I also get an error message that I cannot adjust stock on a user location.

I've tried adjusting more stock into the original pick location but this does not make any difference.

The articles you've included Adis unfortunately don't fix my issue.

I would appreciate any other assistance you might be able to supply.

Thank you.

Hello Jaclyn,

Could you move the stock back from the user location to the pick location?

After completing the movement, please adjust the stock and try picking the order again.

Best regards,
Laurens van der Tang

Hi Laurens,

I can't move any of the stock because it's locked to the picking work. I can't process the picking work any further because of the error message. This is where the picking work is completed too.

Hi Jaclyn,

I would look at the Sales Order line for the item mentioned in the InfoLog and look at the inventory transactions:

How many with status On Order and Physical Reserved?

Does that compare to the work quantity? Are we short?

Can you increase it by 1 with the Delivery Remainder and try again?

Hi Laurens,

Only this sales order with status of physically reserved. The reservation amount is 41.88 and the work amount is 41.88.

I've increased the sales order by 1 and I still get the same error.

Any other sugestions?

Hello Jaclyn,

Thanks for sharing. Could you try to cancel the work with the 'Cancel work' feature?

Best regards,

Came here to make the same 'Cancel work' suggestion.

Assuming this does not normally happen to your picking Work, use any method you can to kill the work (which these days helpfully can be done with the Cancel work function). Perhaps delete the Sales order line too for good measure. Then you should be able to create a new sales order line and release it; if you still want to put it through warehouse processes. Or you could just Pick it directly to the Sales order line.
