  The SAP error message /SCWM/CORE_API106 Warehouse status &1 not allowed for this action typically occurs in the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module when an operation is attempted on a warehouse that is not in a status that allows that action. The status of the warehouse can restrict certain operations based on business rules or configurations.
  Cause:
  
  Warehouse Status: The warehouse may be in a status that does not permit the action you are trying to perform. For example, if the warehouse is set to "Inactive" or "Blocked," certain transactions will not be allowed.
  Configuration Issues: The warehouse status may not be correctly configured in the system, or the status may not be aligned with the intended business processes.

  Solution:
  
  
  Check Warehouse Status: 
  
  Go to the EWM transaction where you can view the warehouse status (e.g., /SCWM/WM or /SCWM/WH).
  Verify the current status of the warehouse in question. If it is not in a status that allows the action, you may need to change the status.

  Review Configuration:
  
  Check the configuration settings for the warehouse in the EWM customizing (transaction SPRO).
  Ensure that the status settings align with your business processes and that the statuses are correctly defined.
