Symptom
The following error occurs when creating a Service Quote as a Follow-Up of a Service Order: Invalid order reference; select a different one
Environment
SAP Business ByDesign
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to the Service Orders work centers.
- Select the Service Order Processing view.
- Select Service Order XYZ (XYZ represents the Service Order ID).
- Click on the Follow-Up button and select Service Quote.
- In the new Service Quote go to Services and Spare Parts tab.
- Remove all the items other than the line item XX (XX represents the line item number).
- Click on the Save button.
- A new service quote will be created with the error message: Invalid order reference; select a different one
Cause
The error occurs because line item XX in the Service Order has the Delivery Status Finished.
Resolution
If you would like to create a follow up quote for these services you would have to manually add them again in the Service Quote. These items would then not have a reference to the Service Order items.
