• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message M7202 - This item not covered by Warehouse Management system ?

  The SAP error message M7202, which states "This item not covered by Warehouse Management system," typically occurs when you are trying to perform a warehouse-related transaction (such as goods movement, stock transfer, or inventory management) for a material that is not managed in the Warehouse Management (WM) system.
  Cause:
  
  Material Not Defined for WM: The material you are trying to process is not set up to be managed in the Warehouse Management system. This can happen if the material master record does not have the necessary WM data.
  Storage Location Settings: The storage location associated with the material may not be defined for WM. If the storage location is not linked to a warehouse, the system will not allow WM transactions for that material.
  Warehouse Configuration: The warehouse itself may not be properly configured to handle the specific material type or storage type.
  Movement Type Restrictions: The movement type you are trying to use may not be allowed for the material in the context of WM.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Master: Verify the material master record for the item in question. Ensure that the WM data is correctly maintained. You can do this by:
  
  Going to the material master (transaction code MM03).
  Checking the Warehouse Management view to see if the material is set up for WM.
  
  
  
  Storage Location Configuration: Ensure that the storage location is linked to a warehouse. You can check this in the configuration settings:
  
  Use transaction code SPRO to access the configuration.
  Navigate to Logistics Execution > Warehouse Management > Maintain Warehouse and check the settings for the storage location.
  
  
  
  Warehouse Management Settings: Ensure that the warehouse is properly configured to handle the material type. This includes checking the storage types and storage sections.
  
  
  Movement Type: Verify that the movement type you are using is appropriate for the material and is allowed in the WM context. You can check this in the movement type configuration.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the settings, consult the SAP documentation or your organization's SAP support team for guidance on how to properly configure materials for WM.
