• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CR365 - Storage location & still contains stock, therefore change is not possible ?

  The SAP error message CR365 indicates that a storage location still contains stock, which prevents changes from being made to that storage location. This error typically arises when you attempt to change or delete a storage location that has existing inventory.
  Cause:
  
  Existing Stock: The primary reason for this error is that there are materials or products still stored in the specified storage location.
  Open Transactions: There may be open transactions (like stock transfers, reservations, or production orders) that reference the stock in that storage location.
  Stock Types: The stock could be in various statuses, such as unrestricted, quality inspection, or blocked stock.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Stock Levels:
  
  Use transaction code MMBE (Stock Overview) to check if there is any stock in the storage location.
  If stock exists, you will need to either move it to another location or clear it out.
  
  
  
  Clear Stock:
  
  If you need to delete or change the storage location, you must first remove the stock. This can be done through:
  
  Stock Transfer: Move stock to another storage location using transaction code MB1B (Transfer Posting).
  Goods Issue: If applicable, perform a goods issue to remove stock from the location.
  
  
  
  
  
  Check Open Transactions:
  
  Use transaction code MB52 (List Warehouse Stocks on Hand) or MB5T (Stock in Transit) to identify any open transactions that might be referencing the stock.
  Resolve any open transactions that are preventing changes.
  
  
  
  Change Storage Location:
  
  Once the stock is cleared and there are no open transactions, you can proceed to change or delete the storage location using transaction code OMSL (for changing storage location settings) or OX09 (for changing storage location details).
  
  
  
  Consult with Your Team:
  
  If you are unsure about moving stock or if there are implications for production or inventory management, consult with your inventory management or logistics team.
