  Identify the Parcels: Determine which parcels are associated with the manifest that you are trying to archive. You can do this by checking the manifest details in the system.
  
  
  Archive the Parcels: Once you have identified the parcels, you need to archive them first. This can typically be done through the archiving transaction in SAP. The specific transaction code may vary based on your system configuration, but it is often something like SARA for archiving.
  
  
  Re-attempt Archiving the Manifest: After successfully archiving all associated parcels, you can then attempt to archive the manifest again.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SARA (for archiving) and /SCWM/ESI (for managing EWM manifests).
  Archiving Objects: Ensure that you have the correct archiving objects set up for parcels and manifests in your system. This may involve configuration in the SAP system.
  Authorization: Make sure you have the necessary authorizations to perform archiving operations in SAP.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation or your organization's internal documentation for specific procedures related to archiving in EWM.

  Data Consistency: Always ensure that the data is consistent before archiving. Check for any open transactions or inconsistencies that might prevent archiving.
  Testing: If you are working in a development or test environment, consider testing the archiving process to ensure that it works as expected before applying it in a production environment.
