• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/DELIVERY_UI083 - The valuation quantity cannot be maintained ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/DELIVERY_UI083 with the description "The valuation quantity cannot be maintained" typically occurs in the context of handling deliveries in the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. This error indicates that there is an issue with the valuation quantity of the items in a delivery, which cannot be modified or maintained due to certain conditions.
  Causes:
  
  
  Item Status: The item in the delivery may be in a status that does not allow changes to the valuation quantity. For example, if the item is already confirmed or has been processed in a way that locks its valuation.
  
  
  Delivery Type: Certain delivery types may have restrictions on maintaining valuation quantities. For instance, if the delivery is a stock transfer or a return delivery, the system may not allow changes to the valuation.
  
  
  Stock Type: The stock type (e.g., unrestricted, quality inspection, blocked) may also affect whether the valuation quantity can be changed.
  
  
  Configuration Settings: There may be specific configuration settings in the EWM or the underlying materials management (MM) module that restrict changes to valuation quantities.
  
  
  Document Flow: If there are subsequent documents (like invoices or goods movements) that have already been created based on the delivery, this may prevent changes to the valuation quantity.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Item Status: Review the status of the item in the delivery. If it is confirmed or processed, you may need to reverse or cancel the confirmation before making changes.
  
  
  Review Delivery Type: Ensure that the delivery type allows for changes to the valuation quantity. If not, consider whether a different delivery type is more appropriate for your needs.
  
  
  Stock Type Review: Check the stock type of the items in the delivery. If they are in a restricted stock type, you may need to move them to unrestricted stock before making changes.
  
  
  Configuration Review: Consult with your SAP configuration team to review the settings related to valuation quantities in EWM and MM. Adjustments may be necessary to allow for changes.
  
  
  Document Flow Check: Investigate if there are any subsequent documents that are preventing changes. If so, you may need to reverse or adjust those documents first.
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes or updates that may address this specific error message or provide additional guidance.
