Can't release a load for partial quantity with batch-above reservation hierarchy

Symptoms

When you use an item that has a batch-above reservation hierarchy, the Release to warehouse command on the Load planning workbench page doesn't work if you try to release a load for a partial quantity. You receive the following error message:

To be assigned to wave, load lines must specify the dimensions above the location. To assign these dimensions, reserve and recreate the load line.

However, when you use an item that has a batch-below reservation hierarchy, you can release a load for a partial quantity from the Load planning workbench page.

Cause

When a dimension is above the Location dimension in the reservation hierarchy, it must be specified before the release to the warehouse. Inventory can be successfully allocated only if there are no gaps in the dimensions above location.

Resolution

Ensure that all dimensions above Location have been assigned by reserving and recreating the load line.
