/SCWM/ERPINTEGRATION879 - Details

• The SAP error message /SCWM/ERPINTEGRATION879 indicates that a posting change cannot be performed because synchronous goods movement is active. This typically occurs in the context of SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) when there are restrictions on how goods movements are processed.
  
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the configuration of the system where synchronous goods movement is enabled. This means that the system expects goods movements to be processed in a synchronous manner, which can restrict certain operations like posting changes. This is often set up to ensure data consistency and integrity between the EWM and the ERP system.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can consider the following approaches:
  
  
  Check Configuration Settings:
  
  Review the configuration settings for goods movements in your SAP EWM system. You may need to check if synchronous goods movement is necessary for your business processes.
  If synchronous processing is not required, you can change the configuration to allow asynchronous processing.
