• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/LC1054 - The structure of activity area &1 is not symmetrical ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/LC1054 indicates that there is an issue with the structure of an activity area in the Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. Specifically, it suggests that the defined structure of the activity area is not symmetrical, which is a requirement for certain operations in EWM.
  Cause:
  The error typically arises due to one of the following reasons:
  
  Asymmetrical Configuration: The activity area has been configured in a way that does not maintain symmetry. This could be due to uneven dimensions or an incorrect setup of the storage bins within the activity area.
  Incorrect Bin Setup: The bins within the activity area may not be defined correctly, leading to an imbalance in the layout.
  Changes in Layout: If there have been recent changes to the layout or configuration of the warehouse, it may have resulted in an asymmetrical structure.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Activity Area Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for the activity area in EWM.
  Verify that the dimensions and layout of the activity area are symmetrical. This includes checking the number of rows and columns, as well as the dimensions of the bins.
  
  
  
  Review Bin Definitions:
  
  Ensure that all storage bins within the activity area are defined correctly and that they conform to the expected symmetrical structure.
  If necessary, adjust the bin definitions to ensure they are uniform.
  
  
  
  Reconfigure the Activity Area:
  
  If the current configuration is incorrect, you may need to delete and recreate the activity area with the correct symmetrical structure.
  Make sure to follow the guidelines for defining activity areas in EWM to avoid similar issues in the future.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for guidance on configuring activity areas and ensuring symmetry.
