'Batch record required' status not set for production order &1

What causes this issue?

A batch record already exists for the header batch of production order
&V1&. However, due to it's order type, the production order does not yet
have the status <LS>Batch Record Required</>. In this case, the order
status is usually set when you call up a worklist containing the batch
record. This failed for order &V1& for one of the following reasons:
A system error occurred in status management.
The production order is not released.
The production order can no longer be edited since the deletion flag has
been set.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

RESET N1
Make sure that all status requirements are met and call up the worklist
again.
If the order status still cannot be set, contact your system
administrator.
