• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/DELIVERY603 - EWM has already received the shipment info; no DTD status change possible ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/DELIVERY603 indicates that the Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) system has already received the shipment information for a delivery, and therefore, a change in the Delivery Tracking Document (DTD) status is not possible. This typically occurs when there is an attempt to change the status of a delivery that has already been processed or updated in the system.
  Cause:
  
  Shipment Information Already Processed: The shipment information for the delivery has already been received and processed by EWM, which locks the ability to change the DTD status.
  Incorrect Status Change Attempt: An attempt is made to change the status of a delivery that is not in a state that allows for such changes (e.g., it may already be in a completed or closed state).
  Timing Issues: There may be timing issues where the status change is attempted after the system has already processed the shipment information.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Current Status: Verify the current status of the delivery in the EWM system. Ensure that the status you are trying to change is valid and permissible.
  Review Shipment Information: Confirm that the shipment information has not been inadvertently processed or updated. If it has, you may need to follow the appropriate procedures to handle the shipment.
  Use Correct Transaction: Ensure that you are using the correct transaction or process to change the status. If the delivery is already processed, you may need to follow a different procedure to manage it.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for guidance on handling delivery statuses in EWM.
  Contact Support: If the issue persists and you cannot determine the cause, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with SAP experts for further assistance.
  
  Related Information:
