• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message LT270 - Decentral WMS active for plant/storage location &1/&2: Lean WM not poss. ?

  The SAP error message LT270 indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of the Warehouse Management (WM) system in relation to the specific plant and storage location you are trying to work with. The message states that Decentralized Warehouse Management (WMS) is active for the specified plant/storage location, which means that Lean Warehouse Management (Lean WM) cannot be used in this context.
  Cause:
  
  Decentralized WMS Active: The plant/storage location you are trying to use is configured to use Decentralized Warehouse Management, which is a more complex system that requires different handling than Lean WM.
  Configuration Settings: The system settings for the plant/storage location may not be aligned with the requirements for Lean WM.
  Master Data Issues: There may be inconsistencies or missing configurations in the master data related to the warehouse, storage location, or plant.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Configuration: 
  
  Go to the configuration settings in SAP and verify if the plant/storage location is indeed set up for Decentralized WMS. If you want to use Lean WM, you may need to change the configuration.
  You can check this in the SPRO transaction under the path: Logistics Execution > Warehouse Management > Interfaces > Define Warehouse Management System.
  
  
  
  Change Plant/Storage Location Settings:
  
  If you need to use Lean WM, you may need to deactivate Decentralized WMS for that specific plant/storage location. This can involve changing the settings in the configuration.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation: 
  
  Review SAP documentation or help files related to Warehouse Management to understand the implications of switching between Decentralized WMS and Lean WM.
  
  
  
  Master Data Review:
  
  Ensure that all relevant master data (like storage types, storage bins, etc.) is correctly set up for the intended warehouse management system.
  
  
  
  Consult with SAP Support: 
  
  If you are unsure about making changes or if the issue persists, it may be beneficial to consult with SAP support or a qualified SAP consultant who can provide guidance based on your specific system configuration.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Lean WM vs. Decentralized WMS: Lean WM is a simplified version of Warehouse Management that is typically used for smaller warehouses or less complex operations, while Decentralized WMS is used for larger, more complex warehouse operations.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as:
  
  SPRO: For configuration settings.
  LT01, LT02, LT03: For warehouse tasks and movements.
  
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues or provide patches related to this error message.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the LT270 error and configure your system appropriately for your warehouse management needs.
