Hi,

You should use the ‘Follow Up’ option instead (this is from the IFS Documentation):

“When you right-click on an MRP message and select ‘Follow Up’, the system opens a context-specific form that lets you:

• Review the source of the message (e.g., shop order, purchase requisition, production schedule).
• Take corrective action such as releasing, rescheduling, or cancelling the order.
• Access related windows like Shop Order Requisition, Purchase Requisition Lines, or Supplier Schedule Lines depending on the part type and supply type.

The ‘Action for Order’ dialog provides a contextual interface for managing MRP proposals. It allows users to:

• View details of the MRP message and the associated order (purchase or shop order).
• Make changes to quantities and dates directly within the dialog.
• Navigate to the actual order record for deeper review or edits.
• Add action notes, such as reasons for delays or supplier constraints, which remain visible until the order is closed or cancelled.”

​@Richard Owen .  Thanks for the guidance! Using Follow Up makes sense. In our Apps 8 setup, we’ll proceed by creating Shop Orders directly from Customer Orders rather than trying to convert the MRP Make proposal. Your explanation clarified the workflow—much appreciated!
