  The SAP error message /SCWM/BIF_CORE006 Resulting quantity was filtered due to authorization checks typically occurs in the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. This error indicates that the system has filtered the resulting quantity of a certain operation (like a stock transfer, goods movement, etc.) due to insufficient authorizations for the user executing the action.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user does not have the necessary authorizations to perform the action on the specified quantity of stock. This could be due to missing roles or permissions in the user's profile.
  Data Filtering: The system may have specific rules or configurations that limit the visibility or access to certain quantities based on user roles or organizational units.

  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Review the user's roles and authorizations in the SAP system. Ensure that the user has the necessary permissions to perform the required actions on the stock.

  Review Configuration:
  
  Check the EWM configuration settings related to authorization checks. Ensure that they are set up correctly and that they align with your business processes.
