• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/DS_CORE210 - Requested duration ignored; loading point &1 uses fixed duration only ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/DS_CORE210 Requested duration ignored; loading point &1 uses fixed duration only typically occurs in the context of the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. This error indicates that the system is trying to process a loading point that has been configured to use a fixed duration for loading or unloading activities, but a variable duration has been requested.
  Cause:
  
  Fixed Duration Configuration: The loading point in question is set up to use a fixed duration for its operations. This means that the system expects a specific, unchangeable time for loading or unloading activities.
  Request for Variable Duration: The process or transaction that is being executed is attempting to specify a variable duration for the loading or unloading activity, which is not compatible with the fixed duration setting of the loading point.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Loading Point Configuration:
  
  Navigate to the configuration settings for the loading point in question.
  Verify if the loading point is indeed set to use a fixed duration. This can typically be found in the EWM customizing settings under the relevant loading point configuration.
  
  
  
  Adjust Duration Settings:
  
  If you need to use a variable duration, consider changing the loading point configuration to allow for variable durations. This may involve modifying the settings in the EWM customizing transaction (e.g., SPRO).
  If the fixed duration is required, ensure that the process or transaction does not request a variable duration.
  
  
  
  Review Process Logic:
  
  Check the logic of the process that is generating the request. Ensure that it aligns with the loading point's configuration. If the process is incorrectly set to request a variable duration, adjust it accordingly.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or help resources related to EWM and loading point configurations for further insights and best practices.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary adjustments, test the process again to ensure that the error no longer occurs.
