Hi,
We have a problem here that we can't start the production order without having all the items available in the inventory.
We are using WMS and we want to start the production orders when partial material is available. After start, if we want to close any work in WMS, when we reach to the final Put step, we get the following error and can't proceed further:
"Quantity XX cannot be picked because inventory transactions with status On order, Reserved ordered or Reserved physical are insufficient."
We thought the problem is when we start the Production Order, Pick List will be generated in which each line item required a reference to the location from the work. But when the item is not yet available (work is not closed), location for those items are empty in the pick list lines and that is the reason of this error.??
Since in our most of cases we have to start the Production with partial available material, Our final conclusion was to not start the production order and keep them in released status until we receive all the material. And when the production order is actually finished, we process Start, report as finished & end at the same time.
I really have a doubt if this is the right solution, does anyone know how we can start the production order with partial available material without getting this error in WMS?
Thanks,
Hasti
