    The SAP error message L9006 indicates that a specific movement type is not allowed for the specified warehouse number in the Warehouse Management (WM) module. This error typically arises when trying to perform a warehouse-related transaction that is not permitted due to configuration settings.

    Cause:

    1. Movement Type Configuration: The movement type you are trying to use may not be configured for the specific warehouse number in the system. Each movement type can have specific settings that determine where and how it can be used.
    2. Warehouse Number Settings: The warehouse number may not be set up to allow the movement type in question. This could be due to restrictions placed on the warehouse for certain types of movements.
    3. User Authorizations: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to perform the movement type in the specified warehouse.
    4. Transaction Type Restrictions: Certain transaction types may be restricted for specific warehouse numbers based on business rules or operational procedures.

    Solution:

    1. Check Movement Type Configuration:

      • Go to the configuration settings for movement types in SAP (Transaction code: OMJJ).
      • Verify if the movement type is allowed for the specified warehouse number. If not, you may need to adjust the configuration.

      • After making any changes, perform a test transaction to ensure that the movement type can now be executed without errors.

    Related Information:

    • Movement Types: Movement types in SAP WM define the type of stock movement (e.g., goods receipt, goods issue, transfer posting) and are crucial for inventory management.
