3. Find and select the relevant Production Model.
4. Click Edit.
5. Click Release Production Model and select Release for Planning and Execution.
6. Observe that the system dumps.

The issue is caused by the structure of the Bills of Operation. If the structure involves a Connection, there should be another operation with at least one 'Produce' activity after the connection. In this case, there is no Operation Element after the Connection.

1. Navigate to the Planning and Production Master Data work center and Production Bills Of Operation view.
2. Find and Edit the relevant Bill of Operations.
3. Ensure to add another Operation with at least one 'Produce' activity after the connection. This is logical since the connection is used to perform two operations with produce activity in parallel, it would then be required to do a final activity to make the final output product.
