• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/HU_WM153 - Mixed storage in HU (&1) for st. type &2 failed due to entitled check ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/HU_WM153 indicates that there is an issue with mixed storage in Handling Units (HUs) due to an entitled check failure. This typically occurs in the context of warehouse management within the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module.
  Cause:
  The error message is triggered when you attempt to store different types of products in the same Handling Unit (HU) but the system has determined that this is not allowed based on the configuration or entitlement checks. The specific reasons can include:
  
  Storage Type Configuration: The storage type may not allow mixed storage of different product types or characteristics.
  Product Characteristics: The products being stored may have conflicting characteristics (e.g., hazardous materials, temperature-sensitive items) that prevent them from being stored together.
  Warehouse Management Settings: The settings in the warehouse management configuration may restrict mixed storage for certain product categories or storage types.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Storage Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for the storage type in SAP EWM.
  Verify if mixed storage is allowed for the specific storage type you are working with. If not, you may need to adjust the settings or choose a different storage type.
  
  
  
  Review Product Characteristics:
  
  Check the characteristics of the products you are trying to store together in the HU.
  Ensure that the products are compatible for mixed storage. If they are not, consider using separate HUs for each product type.
  
  
  
  Adjust Warehouse Management Settings:
  
  Review the warehouse management settings related to mixed storage and entitlement checks.
  If necessary, consult with your SAP EWM administrator or configuration team to modify the settings to allow mixed storage where appropriate.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to the SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed information on handling mixed storage and entitlement checks in EWM.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making any changes, perform a test to ensure that the mixed storage is now allowed and that the error does not occur.

  User Roles and Authorizations: Ensure that the user performing the action has the necessary authorizations to make changes to the storage type or product settings.
