• Message class: 61 - Fehlermeldungen fuer Bedarfsplanung

• Message number: 710

• Message text: Planned order &1 cannot be deleted. Goods receipt quantity greater than 0

What causes this issue?

When copying planned orders from long-term planning to MRP, the system
deletes existing planned orders in MRP that lie in the period for
copying. This is, however, not always possible. Planned order &V1& has
already been partially confirmed, that is, it contains a quantity of
goods received. Because of this, the system cannot delete the planned
order during the copying of planned orders from long-term planning.

System Response

The system did not delete planned order &v1&. The planned order remains
in the period for copying. An additional element now exists in the
specified period to cover a requirement.

How to fix this error?

Edit the planning results manually to correct any excess coverage by
the MRP run.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 61710 - Planned order &1 cannot be deleted. Goods receipt quantity greater than 0 ?

  The SAP error message "61710 Planned order &1 cannot be deleted. Goods receipt quantity greater than 0" indicates that you are trying to delete a planned order that has already had goods received against it. This means that there are inventory quantities that have been received based on this planned order, and as a result, the system prevents the deletion to maintain data integrity.
  Cause:
  
  Goods Receipt Already Posted: The primary cause of this error is that a goods receipt has been posted against the planned order. This means that materials have been received into inventory based on the planned order, and the system does not allow deletion to prevent inconsistencies in inventory records.
  Dependencies: The planned order may have dependencies with other documents or processes that rely on the goods receipt.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you have a few options:
  
  
  Reverse the Goods Receipt:

  Change the Status of the Planned Order:
  
  If you do not want to delete the planned order but rather want to change its status, you can set it to "Closed" or "Completed" instead of deleting it. This can be done using transaction code CO02 (Change Production Order) or MD04 (Stock/Requirements List).
  
  
  
  Check for Related Documents:
  
  Ensure that there are no other related documents that might be preventing the deletion. This includes checking for any dependent production orders, purchase orders, or other transactions.
  
  
  
  Consult with Your SAP Administrator:
