• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/L3057 - No exception codes for differences allowed for cancellation ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/L3057 No exception codes for differences allowed for cancellation typically occurs in the context of the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. This error indicates that there are no defined exception codes for handling differences when attempting to cancel a document or transaction.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Exception Codes: The system requires exception codes to manage differences (like discrepancies in inventory counts) during cancellation processes. If these codes are not defined in the system, the error will occur.
  Configuration Issues: The configuration settings for handling differences in the warehouse management system may not be set up correctly.
  Document Type Restrictions: Certain document types may not allow for cancellation if exception codes are not configured.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Define Exception Codes:
  
  Go to the SAP EWM configuration settings.
  Navigate to the section for defining exception codes (usually found under Logistics Execution -> Warehouse Management -> Define Exception Codes).
  Create or modify exception codes that are relevant for handling differences during cancellations.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Ensure that the configuration for handling differences is correctly set up in the system.
  Verify that the exception codes are linked to the relevant warehouse processes.
  
  
  
  Review Document Types:
  
  Check if the document type you are trying to cancel has specific settings that restrict cancellation without exception codes.
  Adjust the settings if necessary to allow for cancellations.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the cancellation process again to ensure that the error no longer occurs.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may need to use transaction codes like /SCWM/PRDI for managing physical inventory documents or /SCWM/EXC for exception codes.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for Extended Warehouse Management for detailed guidance on configuring exception codes and handling differences.
  Support: If the issue persists after following the above steps, consider reaching out to SAP support or consulting with an SAP EWM expert for further assistance.
  
  By ensuring that exception codes are properly defined and configured, you should be able to resolve the error and proceed with the cancellation process in SAP EWM.
