  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/CORE079 - WT to be created for HU &1 due to process-oriented storage control ?

    The SAP error message /SCWM/CORE079 indicates that a Warehouse Task (WT) cannot be created for Handling Unit (HU) due to process-oriented storage control (POSC) settings. This error typically arises in the context of SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) when the system is unable to determine the appropriate storage process for the handling unit based on the defined rules and configurations.

    Cause:

    1. Process-Oriented Storage Control Configuration: The error often occurs when the POSC settings are not properly configured for the handling unit. This includes missing or incorrect settings for storage types, storage sections, or the relevant process types.
    2. Handling Unit Status: The status of the handling unit may not allow for the creation of a warehouse task. For example, if the HU is already in a process or has been completed, the system may prevent further actions.
    3. Warehouse Process Type: The warehouse process type associated with the handling unit may not be set up to allow for the creation of a warehouse task.
    4. Incompatibility with Storage Control: The handling unit may not meet the criteria defined in the storage control settings, such as weight, volume, or other attributes.

    Solution:

    1. Check POSC Configuration: Review the process-oriented storage control settings in the SAP EWM configuration. Ensure that the relevant storage types and process types are correctly defined and linked to the handling unit.
    2. Review Handling Unit Status: Check the status of the handling unit in the system. If it is in a status that does not allow for task creation, you may need to change its status or complete the current process.
    3. Adjust Warehouse Process Type: Ensure that the warehouse process type associated with the handling unit is configured to allow for the creation of warehouse tasks. This may involve adjusting the settings in the warehouse process type configuration.
    4. Validate Handling Unit Attributes: Check the attributes of the handling unit, such as weight and volume, to ensure they meet the criteria defined in the storage control settings.
    5. Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on configuring process-oriented storage control and handling units.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: You may need to use transaction codes such as /SCWM/PRDI (for inbound delivery processing) or /SCWM/PRDO (for outbound delivery processing) to manage handling units and warehouse tasks.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address known issues or provide additional guidance on this error message.
    • EWM Configuration: Familiarize yourself with the EWM configuration guide, particularly sections related to process-oriented storage control and handling unit management.

    If the issue persists after checking these areas, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or a consultant with expertise in SAP EWM for further assistance.
