• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/L3636 - 'Pallet' behavior: bin &1 found (subdivision:&2, max.HUs:&3, bin type:&4) ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/L3636 is related to the Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module in SAP. This specific error indicates an issue with the handling of pallets in a warehouse bin. The message provides details about the bin that has been found, including its subdivision, maximum handling units (HUs), and bin type.
  Cause:
  The error message typically arises due to one of the following reasons:
  
  Bin Capacity Exceeded: The bin has a maximum number of handling units (HUs) that it can accommodate, and this limit has been reached or exceeded.
  Incorrect Bin Configuration: The bin may not be configured correctly to handle the type of pallets or handling units being placed in it.
  Subdivision Issues: The subdivision of the bin may not match the handling unit being processed, leading to a mismatch.
  Bin Type Restrictions: The bin type may have specific restrictions that prevent certain types of handling units from being stored in it.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check Bin Capacity: Review the configuration of the bin to ensure that it has not reached its maximum capacity for handling units. If it has, you may need to either remove some HUs or increase the bin's capacity if possible.
  
  
  Review Bin Configuration: Ensure that the bin is configured correctly for the type of handling units you are trying to store. This includes checking the bin type and its associated settings.
  
  
  Verify Subdivision: Check the subdivision settings of the bin and ensure they align with the handling unit being processed. If there is a mismatch, you may need to adjust the handling unit or the bin's subdivision settings.
  
  
  Adjust Bin Type: If the bin type has restrictions that prevent the handling unit from being stored, consider using a different bin type that is compatible with the handling unit.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed information on bin configurations and handling unit management in EWM.
  
  
  System Configuration: If necessary, involve your SAP Basis or EWM configuration team to review the system settings and make any required adjustments.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may want to use transaction codes like /SCWM/PRDI (for managing products) or /SCWM/BIN (for managing bins) to review and adjust configurations.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address known issues or provide additional guidance on this error message.
  EWM Documentation: Review the official SAP EWM documentation for best practices on bin management and handling unit configurations.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the root cause of the error and implement a suitable solution.
