How To Fix RM769 - You are not allowed to change partially confirmed planned order &1

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: RM - Messages for Repetitive Manufacturing

• Message number: 769

• Message text: You are not allowed to change partially confirmed planned order &1

What causes this issue?

For the sales order that is being changed, a dynamic assembly order
exists that is linked to the sales order. Confirmations have already
been entered for the assembly order, for which goods issues or
production activities have to be posted. The assembly process triggered
by the sales order therefore cannot update the planned order.

System Response

The planned order cannot be updated because the separate goods issue or
the production activities could not then be offset. The availability
situation cannot be confirmed and is therefore terminated.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

First complete the postings that are still open (Logistics -->
Production --> Repetitive Manufacturing --> Data Entry --> Decoupled
Confirmation). Then carry out an availability check in the sales order
to restore the confirmed quantity.
