• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/ERPINTEGRATION082 - Concurrent change in EWM, start again ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/ERPINTEGRATION082 indicates that there is a concurrent change occurring in the Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) system. This typically happens when multiple processes or transactions are trying to modify the same data simultaneously, leading to a conflict. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Transactions: Multiple users or processes are trying to update the same object (like a stock transfer order, delivery, etc.) at the same time.
  Locking Mechanism: SAP uses a locking mechanism to prevent data inconsistencies. If one transaction has locked the data, another transaction trying to access it will receive this error.
  Long-running Processes: If a process takes too long to complete, it may lead to other processes being blocked, resulting in this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Retry the Operation: The simplest solution is to wait for a moment and then retry the operation. This allows any locks to be released.
  Check for Active Processes: Use transaction codes like SM12 (to check for locks) and SM21 (to check system logs) to identify if there are any long-running or stuck processes that might be causing the issue.
  Review User Activities: Ensure that users are not performing conflicting operations on the same data. Coordination among users can help mitigate this issue.
  Increase Timeout Settings: If the issue is frequent, consider reviewing and possibly increasing the timeout settings for the relevant processes.
  System Performance: Check the overall performance of the EWM system. If the system is slow, it may lead to more frequent locking issues. Optimizing performance can help reduce the occurrence of this error.
  Consult SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes or updates that might address this specific error or provide additional guidance.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with transaction codes like SM12, SM21, and SM37 (for job monitoring) to help diagnose and resolve issues.
  SAP Community: Engage with the SAP Community or forums for insights from other users who may have encountered similar issues.
  Documentation: Review SAP documentation related to EWM and ERP integration for best practices and troubleshooting steps.
  
  If the problem persists after trying the above solutions, it may be necessary to involve your SAP Basis team or consult SAP support for further assistance.
