• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/DELIVERY139 - Subitem quantities greater than picked qty of main item (&1 &2 item &3) ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/DELIVERY139 indicates that there is a discrepancy between the quantities of subitems and the picked quantity of the main item in the context of warehouse management and delivery processing. This error typically arises in the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module when trying to process a delivery that involves subitems.
  Cause:
  
  
  Quantity Mismatch: The subitem quantities specified in the delivery are greater than the picked quantity of the main item. This can happen if:
  
  The picking process did not pick enough quantity of the main item to fulfill the subitem requirements.
  There was an error in the configuration of the delivery or picking process.
  Manual adjustments or changes were made to the delivery quantities after picking.
  
  
  
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration of the delivery items or the handling of subitems may not be set up correctly, leading to inconsistencies.
  
  
  Data Entry Errors: Errors during data entry or during the creation of the delivery can lead to incorrect quantities being specified.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Picking Quantities: Verify the picked quantities of the main item. Ensure that the picked quantity is sufficient to cover the subitem quantities. If not, you may need to perform additional picking.
  
  
  Adjust Delivery Quantities: If the picked quantity is correct but the subitem quantities are incorrect, adjust the quantities of the subitems in the delivery to match the available picked quantity.
  
  
  Re-Pick if Necessary: If the picking was insufficient, you may need to initiate a re-picking process to ensure that the correct quantities are picked.
  
  
  Review Configuration: Check the configuration settings for the delivery and subitem handling in SAP EWM. Ensure that the settings align with your business processes.
