• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message L3236 - Dest.stor.type for stor.unit does not match dest.stor.type for mvmt type ?

  The SAP error message L3236 indicates that there is a mismatch between the destination storage type for a storage unit and the expected destination storage type for the movement type being used. This typically occurs in the context of warehouse management (WM) processes, where specific movement types are associated with certain storage types.
  Cause:
  The error can occur due to several reasons:
  
  Configuration Mismatch: The configuration for the movement type does not match the storage type defined for the storage unit. Each movement type can be configured to allow or restrict movements to specific storage types.
  Incorrect Storage Unit: The storage unit being used may not be compatible with the destination storage type defined for the movement type.
  Warehouse Management Settings: There may be settings in the warehouse management configuration that restrict the movement of goods between certain storage types.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Movement Type Configuration:

  Verify the settings for the movement type being used and ensure that it is allowed to move goods to the destination storage type.
  
  
  
  Check Storage Type Configuration:
  
  Review the configuration of the storage types involved (Transaction code: SPRO -> Logistics Execution -> Warehouse Management -> Master Data -> Define Storage Types).
  Ensure that the destination storage type is correctly defined and that it matches the expected configuration for the movement type.
  
  
  
  Review Storage Unit:
  
  Check the characteristics of the storage unit being used. Ensure that it is compatible with the destination storage type.
