Symptom
An error 'Releasing the production order failed' occurs when releasing a Production Order.
Environment
SAP Business ByDesign
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to the Production Control Work Center.
- Open New Production Order Task in Common Task tab.
- Input the corresponding values.
- Choose Release, then the error occurs.
Cause
Prerequisite: The Business Configuration “Default Production Order Release Strategy” is set to automatic.
When clicking the release button, the following occurs,
- Save is executed for Production Order. Due to the release strategy being automatic, this then releases the Production Order.
- Then the system tries to release the PO a second time.
As the Production Order was already released, you get the error message.
Resolution
Our Development team will fix this issue in a future release.
You can ignore this error message for now or choose Save instead of Release during new production order.
