  The SAP error message /SCWM/DELIVERY051 indicates that there was an issue with scheduling a goods movement for a warehouse request in the Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. This error typically arises during the processing of a delivery or warehouse request when the system is unable to schedule the necessary goods movement.
  Causes:
  
  Scheduling Conflicts: There may be conflicts in the scheduling of the goods movement due to resource unavailability or overlapping tasks.
  Configuration Issues: Incorrect configuration in the EWM settings, such as the absence of a valid warehouse process type or missing parameters for the goods movement.
  Capacity Constraints: The warehouse may have capacity constraints that prevent the scheduling of additional movements.
  Missing Master Data: Required master data (like storage bins, handling units, or products) may be incomplete or incorrect.
  System Performance: High system load or performance issues may lead to scheduling failures.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Scheduling Parameters: Review the scheduling parameters in the EWM configuration to ensure they are set correctly.
  Review Warehouse Processes: Ensure that the warehouse process types are correctly defined and that there are no conflicts in the process flow.
  Capacity Management: Check the capacity of the warehouse and ensure that there are sufficient resources available for the goods movement.

  Monitor System Performance: If the issue is related to system performance, consider monitoring the system load and optimizing performance where necessary.
  Manual Scheduling: If automatic scheduling fails, consider manually scheduling the goods movement as a temporary workaround.
