• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/LT127 - Bin type with bin depth not allowed in non-multi-depth storage type ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/LT127 indicates that there is an issue with the bin type configuration in the Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. Specifically, it states that the bin type you are trying to use has a bin depth that is not allowed in a non-multi-depth storage type.
  Cause:
  This error typically occurs when:
  
  Bin Type Configuration: The bin type you are trying to use is configured to allow multiple depths (i.e., it can hold multiple layers of stock), but the storage type it is associated with is set up as a non-multi-depth storage type. This means that the storage type can only hold stock in a single layer.
  Warehouse Process: The warehouse process you are trying to execute (like putaway or stock removal) is attempting to place or retrieve stock in a way that is incompatible with the bin type and storage type configuration.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Bin Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for the bin type in the SAP EWM system.
  Verify if the bin type is set to allow multiple depths. If it is, consider changing it to a single depth if it is supposed to be used in a non-multi-depth storage type.
  
  
  
  Check Storage Type Configuration:
  
  Review the configuration of the storage type associated with the bin type.
  Ensure that the storage type is correctly set up as a multi-depth or non-multi-depth type based on your warehouse requirements.
  
  
  
  Adjust Warehouse Process:
  
  If the warehouse process is incorrectly trying to use a multi-depth bin type in a non-multi-depth storage type, adjust the process to use a compatible bin type or storage type.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed information on configuring bin types and storage types in EWM.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the warehouse process again to ensure that the error does not occur.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP EWM Configuration: Understanding how to configure bin types and storage types is crucial for effective warehouse management. Familiarize yourself with the relevant configuration settings in the SAP EWM system.
  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to this error message for additional insights or patches that may address known issues.
  Training and Support: If you are unsure about the configuration changes, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP EWM expert.
