ISSUE: 


When receiving goods in PPS300 to POs migrated from On-Prem, we need to use the original lot number from the supplying BU. 

However, we are getting an alert/error message that says "The lot is connected to another reference" and M3 does not allow to procced to the next step. 


CAUSE:


The lot created in On-Prem had 1-Manufact order as Ref order category and we are no longer able to change to 2-Purchase order because Report Receipt has been done to the MO by the supplying BU.


SOLUTION/WORK-AROUND:


1. Receive the PO with the proposed lot number in PPS300.

2. Once units reflect in MWS068, select stock/lot line and click Balance ID-Reclassify (MMS130)

   


3. Select Calc method 0-New item/New lot and click Next

   


4. Type in New Lot No, New Qty and Trans reason T03-Lot number and click Next.

     


5. Click F3 or Actions -> Close

6. Check in MWS068 that correct units and new/updated lot number are reflecting.


NOTE: This process should only be applied to receiving of migrated POs that result to an alert/error message that says "The lot is connected to another reference".
