  The SAP error message /SCWM/DLV_EGR203 Item type &1 does not allow manual creation and creation with template typically occurs in the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. This error indicates that the item type specified (represented by &1) is configured in such a way that it does not permit manual creation of delivery documents or the use of templates for creating such documents.
  Cause:
  
  Item Type Configuration: The item type in question is likely configured in the system to restrict manual creation. This could be due to business rules or settings defined in the system.
  Master Data Settings: The material master or product master data may have settings that prevent manual creation of deliveries for that specific item type.
  Warehouse Management Settings: The warehouse management settings may have restrictions on how certain item types can be processed.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Item Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for item types in EWM. You can find this in the SPRO transaction under the EWM settings.
  Review the settings for the specific item type to see if manual creation is allowed. If not, you may need to adjust the configuration to allow it.
  
  
  
  Review Material/Product Master Data:
  
  Check the material or product master data for the item type in question. Ensure that the settings do not restrict manual creation.
  You can do this using transaction codes like MM03 (Display Material) or /SCWM/MAT1 (Display Product).
  
  
  
  Consult with Business Process Owners:
  
  If the item type is intentionally restricted, consult with the relevant business process owners to understand the rationale behind this restriction. They may have specific reasons for not allowing manual creation.
  
  
  
  Use Alternative Methods:
  
  If manual creation is not allowed, consider using other methods to create deliveries, such as using automated processes or batch jobs that comply with the restrictions.
  
  
  
  Check for User Authorizations:
  
  Ensure that the user attempting to create the delivery has the necessary authorizations to perform this action. Sometimes, authorization issues can also lead to similar error messages.
