Changing production order from Released to Finished

When I go to change the status of my production order from released to finished I get this error message:

Gen. Prod. Posting group must have a value in Item Journal Line:

Journal Template Name=, Journal Batch Name=, Line No. = 0. It cannot be zero or empty.

What does this mean and how do I change the status to finished?

Check all the involved Work Centers and Items used/produced and Resources involved.
Seems that somewhere the Gen. Prod. Posting group value is missing.

have you experiences any issue previously?

as suggested, normally this means certain items including components or finished product or certain work center/machine center hasn't been set up fully. You need to check those to ensure the gen. prod posting group has been filled out.

since your error message is not a screenshot, I'm not sure if it is 100% what the message says. If the message refers to a certain line no. you could check that line.

hope it helps
