You must also assign the planner who approves move order lines to the item or organization. See: Setting Up Move Orders. This step is required only if you wish to require planner approval for move order requisitions.

When you create a move order transfer, you can specify the destination locator, or leave it blank. If you leave it blank, Oracle Inventory selects a default locator for the item in the destination subinventory you specified on the move order line. If you did not define a default locator for the item in the subinventory, you receive the error Failed to Generate Allocations. Cannot suggest a destination locator because there is no default destination locator for this item. To avoid this problem, you must either define a locator for the item, or provide the specified destination locator to which the move order should be allocated when created.
