  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/BIF054 - Goods issue posted for delivery item &1 /&2; change not possible ?

    The SAP error message /SCWM/BIF054 Goods issue posted for delivery item &1 /&2; change not possible typically occurs in the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module when there is an attempt to change a delivery item that has already had a goods issue posted against it. This means that the system has recorded that the goods have been issued from the warehouse for that specific delivery item, and as a result, certain changes to that delivery item are restricted.

    Cause:

    1. Goods Issue Posted: The primary cause of this error is that a goods issue has already been processed for the delivery item in question. Once a goods issue is posted, the system locks the delivery item for further changes to maintain data integrity.
    2. Delivery Status: The delivery item may be in a status that does not allow for modifications after the goods issue has been posted.
    3. Business Process Compliance: The system is designed to prevent changes to ensure compliance with business processes and to avoid inconsistencies in inventory and delivery records.

    Solution:

    1. Review the Delivery Item: Check the status of the delivery item to confirm that a goods issue has indeed been posted. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction in SAP EWM or using the appropriate report.
    2. No Changes Allowed: Understand that if a goods issue has been posted, you cannot change the delivery item. If changes are necessary, you may need to consider alternative approaches:
      • Create a New Delivery: If changes are required, you may need to create a new delivery item instead of modifying the existing one.
      • Reverse the Goods Issue: If applicable and if business processes allow, you might consider reversing the goods issue. This can be complex and may require additional approvals or processes.
    3. Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's internal guidelines for handling such situations, as there may be specific procedures in place.
    4. Contact Support: If you are unsure how to proceed or if the situation is complex, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or a consultant who specializes in SAP EWM for assistance.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes in SAP EWM, such as /SCWM/PRDI for displaying delivery items or /SCWM/GR for goods receipt processing.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to this error message for additional insights or updates from SAP.
    • User Authorization: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to perform actions related to deliveries and goods issues in the system.

    By understanding the cause of the error and following the suggested solutions, you can effectively address the issue and maintain the integrity of your warehouse operations in SAP EWM.
