• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/DLV_EGR202 - Doc. type &1 does not allow manual creation and creation with template ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/DLV_EGR202 indicates that the document type specified (represented by &1) does not allow for manual creation or creation using a template in the context of the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. This error typically arises when users attempt to create a delivery document manually or through a template for a document type that is configured to disallow such actions.
  Cause:
  
  Document Type Configuration: The document type in question has been configured in the system to prevent manual creation. This is often done for specific business processes where document creation should be controlled or automated.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to create documents of that type, although this is less common for this specific error.
  System Settings: The system settings or parameters for the warehouse or document type may restrict manual creation.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Document Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for the document type in the SAP EWM system.
  Navigate to the relevant configuration path (usually under SPRO -> Logistics Execution -> Extended Warehouse Management -> Delivery -> Define Delivery Document Types).
  Verify if the document type is set to allow manual creation. If not, you may need to change the settings or create a new document type that allows manual creation.
  
  
  
  Use Alternative Creation Methods:
  
  If manual creation is not allowed, consider using the appropriate automated processes for creating the document, such as through inbound deliveries, outbound deliveries, or other relevant transactions that align with your business processes.
  
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Ensure that the user attempting to create the document has the necessary authorizations. This can be checked in the user roles and profiles assigned to the user.
