2643365 - System Proposes Wrong Source and Target Logistics Area While Confirming Make Task

Symptom

When you confirm the Make Task, system proposes Source and Target Logistics Area X instead of Y. (here X and Y represents Logistics Area IDs)

Environment

SAP Business ByDesign

Cause

In Make Task, Target Logistics Area is proposed as per the logistics area maintained for the Main Resource maintained at the Operation(Make).

When a production model is created, Logistics Area at the operation will be automatically picked up from Main Resource Logistics area which is maintained at Make Operation. So, Logistics Area at both Resource and Operation should always be the same.
