How To Fix CO235 - Smallest op. no. in parallel seq. & is smaller than the branch op. no.

CO235 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: CO - PPC order processing messages

• Message number: 235

• Message text: Smallest op. no. in parallel seq. & is smaller than the branch op. no.

What causes this issue?

You are trying to create a parallel sequence. The smallest operation
number in the parallel sequence is, however, smaller than the number
of the branch operation.

How to fix this error?

Within a parallel sequence, you can only enter numbers, which are
greater than the number of the branch operation and
smaller than the number of the return operation.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CO235 - Smallest op. no. in parallel seq. & is smaller than the branch op. no. ?

  The SAP error message CO235 indicates that there is an issue with the operation numbers in a production order or routing. Specifically, it means that the smallest operation number in a parallel sequence is smaller than the operation number of a branch operation. This can occur in scenarios where you have parallel sequences in your routing, and the system is unable to determine the correct sequence of operations due to the numbering.
  
  Cause:
  
  Operation Numbering: The operation numbers in a parallel sequence must be sequential and should not overlap with the operation numbers of branch operations.
  Routing Configuration: There may be a misconfiguration in the routing where the operation numbers are not set correctly, leading to conflicts.
  Manual Changes: If operations have been manually renumbered or modified, it can lead to inconsistencies in the operation sequence.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Operation Numbers: Review the operation numbers in the routing. Ensure that the smallest operation number in the parallel
