Symptoms

When you finish a production order that was created from planning for an item in Microsoft Dynamics NAV 5.0 Service Pack 1 (SP1) and in Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 SP1, you receive the following error message:
Qty. to Handle (Base) in Tracking Specification for Item No. Item_number, Serial No.: , Lot No.: Lot_number is currently –n.nn it must be –n.nnn.

In this error message, Item_number represents an actual item number. Lot_number represents an actual lot number. n.nn and n.nnn represent actual amounts.

This problem occurs if the following conditions are true:
  • The backward flushing method is used for the item.
  • The item is lot tracked.
  • The unit of measure (UOM) rounding is used for calculations of the item.

Cause

This problem occurs because the rounding is incorrect when you run the calculate plan from the planning worksheets during planning.
