Symptom
When confirming a Make task, you are unable to select the Identified ID as the Result Type indicator is in red, showing a message 'Inventory Retrieval or placement is not allowed, constraints not met'. In addition you get an error message saying: 'Identified stock XYZ at Input Product not valid'. (XYZ represents the ID of the Identified Stock). However, if you check the Stock Overview, it is showing enough on-hand stock for the selected Identified Stock.
