• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/BATCH080 - Batches for product &1 not classified; search not supported ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/BATCH080 indicates that the system is unable to classify batches for a specific product, which means that the search for batches related to that product is not supported. This can occur in the context of SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) when the system is trying to perform operations that require batch classification, such as picking, stock transfer, or inventory management.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Batch Classification: The product in question does not have any batch classification data maintained in the system. This could be due to the product not being set up correctly in the material master or the batch management settings.

  Review Batch Management Settings:
  
  Ensure that the batch management settings are correctly configured in the system. This includes checking the material type settings and ensuring that batch management is enabled.
