Target quantity <= calculated scrap quantity (please increase target qty)

Message type: E = Error

Message class: COTU - Messages for Partial Conversion Planned Order -> Prod. Order

Message number: 017

Message text: Target quantity <= calculated scrap quantity (please increase target qty)



What causes this issue?

The calculated scrap quantity (&V1& &V2&) is not smaller than the
target quantity. Therefore, the system could not determine a yield to
be produced. A production order with a quantity of zero, however, is
not allowed.
The system has determined the proportional scrap quantity for the
partial quantity by using the relationship between the scrap quantity
and order quantity of the planned order. If necessary, this
proportional scrap quantity has been converted to the order unit of
measure. In the case of an indivisable unit of measure, it has also
been rounded up and reconverted to the unit of measure in the partial
quantity line.


System Response

The system rejects the selected target quantity.


How to fix this error?

Increase the partial quantity.
