    Dear

    Regarding your error, I have solved your issue.

    During setting up the job registration, I experienced the same error (see picture via link below) when starting a job in the job registration form. Hence, I filled in the picking list journal name in the Production parameters of the Manufacturing execution setup - see picture via link below.

    Afterwards, I was able to start the job.

    Regards

    All...think I may have solved this myself.....the defaults weren't applying to the Start Production form. Once they had been set, the process starts without error. :-)

    Hi All,

    I've just found a similar issue when I've tried to start production. All the relevant Production Journals are specified in the Production Controls Parameters form, including the Picking List, but I still get the Journal Name does not exist error message. What could be missing?

    Thanks

    Julian

    Hi Rosey,

    It would be more helpful to see the real form with the error. I think it is looking for the Production control parameter "Picking list" which can be found on the Journals tab.

    (Production control > Setup > Production control parameters)

    You have to specify a journal name here.

    There is a parameter field for a BOM journal in Inventory and warehouse management parameters in tabpage Journals. Is this setup ?

    Whoops I attached a picture and it did not show up.

    The error says: Calculating BOM Consumption - journal name does not exist.
