• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/DELIVERY547 - Quantity adjustment is not possible due to confirmed quantity ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/DELIVERY547 indicates that there is an issue with adjusting the quantity of a delivery in the Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. Specifically, it means that a quantity adjustment cannot be performed because there is a confirmed quantity that prevents the change.
  Cause:
  
  Confirmed Quantities: The most common cause of this error is that the delivery has already been confirmed, meaning that the system has recorded that the goods are ready for shipment or have been picked.
  Open Processes: There may be open processes related to the delivery, such as picking or packing, that are preventing any changes to the confirmed quantities.
  Stock Availability: The system may have stock that is already allocated to the delivery, which cannot be adjusted without first unconfirming or canceling the existing confirmation.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Confirmations: Review the delivery document to see if there are any confirmations that need to be reversed. You can do this by navigating to the delivery document in EWM and checking the status of the confirmations.
  
  
  Unconfirm the Delivery: If possible, unconfirm the delivery. This can usually be done through the EWM interface by selecting the delivery and choosing the option to unconfirm or cancel the confirmation.
  
  
  Check Open Processes: Ensure that there are no open processes (like picking or packing) that are associated with the delivery. If there are, you may need to complete or cancel those processes before making adjustments.
  
  
  Adjust Quantities: Once the delivery is unconfirmed and there are no open processes, you should be able to adjust the quantities as needed.
  
  
  Reconfirm the Delivery: After making the necessary adjustments, you can confirm the delivery again if required.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes in EWM, such as /SCWM/PRDI for displaying deliveries or /SCWM/PRDI for processing deliveries.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for Extended Warehouse Management for more detailed information on handling deliveries and confirmations.
  User Roles: Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to make changes to deliveries in the EWM system, as certain roles may restrict access to confirm or unconfirm deliveries.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or refer to SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message.
