Hi All,

Please help out with this issue to get resolved. I am doing integration of FICO and Production Planning and fund management is also activated in our company.

We have converted planned order to Production order and released.

Hello,

When I faced this error, I tried to look at the cost center that I used, say 123000, in which it was maintained Functional Area as 0040 (Admin). Once I maintain this value in the line item "More data" (not in header field) the error was solved.

Those who encounter this error could give a try.

Thanks,

Lin
