    Hi,
     
    There are several reasons why you might be getting an error when posting a production order in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management. Here are some of the most common causes:
     
    Inventory Availability:
     
    >Verify that there is sufficient inventory of the raw materials and components required for the production order.
    >Ensure that the raw materials and components are available at the production site where the order is being executed.
    >Check if any inventory reservations or locks are preventing the consumption of the required materials.
     
    BOM and Route Consistency:
     
    >Check for any inconsistencies between the bill of materials (BOM) and the routing. This could include missing components, incorrect quantities, or invalid operations.
    >Validate that the BOM and routing are compatible with the production site and the available resources.
     
    Account Structure and Ledger Setup:
     
    >Verify that the account structure is correctly configured for the posting of production costs.
    >Ensure that the ledger accounts for the raw materials, components, and finished goods are properly linked to the cost categories and cost group.
    >Check if any account dimensions are missing or invalid, preventing the posting of transactions.
     
    Posting Profile Settings:
     
    >Review the posting profile settings for the production order to ensure they are correct.
    >Verify that the posting profile is assigned to the production order and that it includes the correct posting types and accounts.
    >Check if any posting validations or rules are preventing the posting of the production order.
     
    To troubleshoot the error further, it's helpful to examine the specific error message that is being displayed. This error message may provide more specific details about the cause of the issue. You can also review the production order's journal entries in the General Ledger to see which transactions are failing to post.

    Hi,
    You can check out this following blog, which is divided into two parts: 1. Subcontracting through purchase order 2. Subcontracting through production order. You can check out the production order subcontracting section of the blog, which gives an example to detail the steps of the subcontracting standard process:
    1.The main order and the subcontracting order are either converted (firmed) from planned production orders, or the main order for D0003 is entered manually, then the estimation spawns the sub-production order automatically due to the type Vendor of the M0070 BOM line. The MRP explosion shows the following picture:

    2.With the firming/estimation of the sub-production order a purchase order for the service item M0070_SC is automatically generated by the system
    3.The purchase order is confirmed by the procurement department.
    4.The sub-production order is started from the screen Production / Subcontracted work. No materials or time may be consumed before this point.
    5.The transfer order for the free issue materials is released to the warehouse (it may be the same person who created and started the production order).
    6.The warehouse workers execute the picking work, confirm the TO shipment.
    7.The transfer order is getting shipped and received.
