• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CO121 - Order & is partially released ?

  The SAP error message CO121 indicates that a production order is only partially released. This means that certain operations or components of the order are not fully released for processing, which can prevent further actions such as confirmations, goods movements, or production activities.
  Cause:
  
  Partial Release: The order may have been released partially due to user actions or system settings. This can happen if the order was released in stages or if certain components were not released.
  Dependencies: There may be dependencies on other orders or components that need to be released before the current order can be fully released.
  Status Management: The order might be in a status that does not allow full release, such as being on hold or awaiting approval.
  Configuration Issues: There could be configuration settings in the system that dictate how orders are released and processed.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Order Status: Review the status of the production order in the SAP system. You can do this by using transaction codes like CO03 (Display Production Order) to see the current status and any messages related to the order.
  Release the Order: If the order is partially released, you can attempt to fully release it using transaction CO02 (Change Production Order). Ensure that all necessary components and operations are set to be released.
  Review Dependencies: Check if there are any dependencies or prerequisites that need to be fulfilled before the order can be fully released. This may involve checking related orders or components.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's internal guidelines for managing production orders to ensure compliance with any specific processes.
  User Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to release the order fully. If not, contact your SAP administrator for assistance.
  Error Logs: Check for any error logs or messages that might provide additional context on why the order is only partially released.
  
  Related Information:
