• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /CWM/QM003 - For posting blocked stock to bloc.stk only a mean value & can be valuated ?

  The SAP error message /CWM/QM003 typically occurs in the context of Quality Management (QM) when trying to post blocked stock to a block stock location. This error indicates that the system is unable to process the posting because only a mean value can be used for valuation in this context.
  Cause:
  The error is generally caused by the following reasons:
  
  Valuation Type: The stock you are trying to post may not have a valid valuation type assigned. In SAP, stock can be valuated based on different criteria, and if the stock is not set up correctly, it can lead to this error.
  Quality Inspection: If the stock is under quality inspection, it may not be allowed to be posted to blocked stock without proper valuation.
  Stock Type Restrictions: The system may have restrictions on the type of stock that can be moved to blocked stock, especially if it is not valuated correctly.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Go to the material master record and ensure that the valuation type is correctly set up. You can check this in the Accounting view of the material master.
  Ensure that the material is set up for valuation in the appropriate currency and that the valuation class is correctly assigned.
  
  
  
  Review Stock Type:
  
  Check the stock type of the material. Ensure that the stock you are trying to post is indeed allowed to be moved to blocked stock.
  If the stock is under quality inspection, ensure that the inspection lot is completed and the stock is released for posting.
  
  
  
  Use Transaction Codes:
  
  Use transaction codes like MMBE (Stock Overview) to check the stock status and MB1B (Transfer Posting) to attempt the posting again after making necessary adjustments.
  
  
  
  Consult with QM Team:
  
  If the issue persists, consult with your Quality Management team to ensure that the quality inspection process is being followed correctly and that there are no additional restrictions in place.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  If you have access, check the configuration settings in SPRO related to stock management and quality management to ensure that they are set up correctly.
