  Solution:
  
  Review Storage Control Settings: Check the storage control settings in the EWM configuration. Ensure that they are set up correctly and that they align with the intended warehouse process types.
  Adjust Warehouse Process Types: If necessary, adjust the warehouse process types in the configuration to ensure they are compatible with the storage control settings. This may involve modifying the process type determination logic.
  Check Storage Type Configuration: Verify that the storage types are correctly configured and that they are compatible with the warehouse process types you are trying to use.
  Testing: After making changes, conduct tests to ensure that the error does not reoccur and that the warehouse operations can proceed as expected.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on configuring storage control and warehouse process types.
