How To Fix PK536 - Staging rel. order part EWM -> IM: Only one cntrl cycle allowed per SLoc

PK536 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: PK - Production - KANBAN

• Message number: 536

• Message text: Staging rel. order part EWM -> IM: Only one cntrl cycle allowed per SLoc

What causes this issue?

In the case of a staging of release order parts from an EWM warehouse in
an IM-managed production storage location, you can always only define
one control cycle per storage location and material. This means that in
this case, a designated production supply area (PSA) must be specified,
at which staging from EWM is carried out.

System Response

A control cycle for release order parts for this material-plant-storage
location combination already exists. The definition of several control
cycles is prevented in this case.

How to fix this error?

Background: the staging (and missing quantity calculation) for release
order parts is only possible at storage location level in this case
because inventory management is carried out at storage location level
and not PSA level.

Procedure for System Administrators

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
