Error Messages while Consuming Serial/Lot using Partial Search

This section describes the different error messages that you might see while you do a complete or partial string search and try to consume a single serial/lot or multiple serials/lots. For more information on consuming serial/lot, refer to the section Specify Consumption of BOM Items for a Production Event.

Error Messages Message Description Corrective Actions
No Results Found The serial/lot that you searched is not found due to any of the following reasons:
  • The serials/lots that match the string searched are not available. However, you can create the required serial/lot. For more information, refer to Create a Lot.
  • The material of the searched lot is different from the BOM material that is being searched for.
  • In case of the process manufacturing system, the searched serials/lots do not belong to the defined valid unit for the process order. For a BOM Material, a valid unit is the storage unit configured in the BOM formulation.
    Note: In case of a discrete manufacturing system, there is no valid storage unit restriction. If the serials/lots are not there in a storage unit, it will fetch the BOM Materials that have the same UOM from all the other units.
  • The searched serials/lots are not available for consumption, either based on the status or the quantity.
  • Try to consume from a different serial/lot.
Unit of measure of the serial/lot does not match unit of measure for required quantity. Cannot show serial/lot(s) : <Names of all the lots that has UOM miss-match> UOM of the BOM Material does not match the UOM of the searched serial/lot.
  • Consume from a different serial/lot that has the correct UOM that matches the UOM of the searched serial/lot.
  • If you are a Plant Apps administrator, you can configure the UOM of the lot in BOM Editor.
