  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/GOODS_MOVEMENT079 - Post goods issue for one delivery at a time. ?

    The SAP error message /SCWM/GOODS_MOVEMENT079 typically occurs in the context of the Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module when trying to post a goods issue for multiple deliveries at once, which is not allowed in certain configurations or scenarios. The error message indicates that the system is set up to only allow the posting of goods issues for one delivery at a time.

    Cause:

    1. Configuration Settings: The system may be configured to restrict the posting of goods issues to one delivery at a time. This is often done to ensure data integrity and to simplify the tracking of goods movements.
    2. Transaction Type: The transaction type being used may not support bulk processing of deliveries.
    3. User Authorization: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to perform bulk goods issue postings.
    4. System Limitations: There may be limitations in the system or specific business processes that require handling deliveries individually.

    Solution:

    1. Post Goods Issue Individually: The simplest solution is to process the goods issue for each delivery one at a time. This can be done by selecting a single delivery and executing the goods issue transaction.
    2. Check Configuration: If bulk processing is required, check the configuration settings in the EWM system. You may need to consult with your SAP Basis or EWM configuration team to see if there are settings that can be adjusted to allow for multiple deliveries.
    3. Review Transaction Types: Ensure that the transaction type being used supports the desired operation. If not, consider using a different transaction type that allows for bulk processing.
    4. User Roles and Authorizations: Verify that the user has the necessary roles and authorizations to perform the desired actions. If not, work with your security team to adjust the user’s permissions.
