  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/MFS109 - No conveyor segment determined; HU &1 cannot be moved ?

    The SAP error message /SCWM/MFS109 No conveyor segment determined; HU &1 cannot be moved typically occurs in the context of the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) system, particularly when dealing with Material Flow System (MFS) integration. This error indicates that the system is unable to determine a conveyor segment for the Handling Unit (HU) specified in the error message, which prevents the movement of that HU.

    Causes:

    1. Missing Conveyor Segment Configuration: The conveyor segment may not be properly configured in the system. This could be due to missing or incorrect settings in the MFS configuration.

    2. Handling Unit (HU) Not Assigned to a Conveyor: The specific HU may not be assigned to any conveyor segment, or the assignment may not be valid for the current operation.

    3. Warehouse Process Type Issues: The warehouse process type associated with the movement may not be set up to use conveyor segments.

    4. Incompatible Movement Type: The movement type being used may not be compatible with the conveyor system.

    5. System Status: The conveyor system or the specific conveyor segment may be in a status that does not allow for movement (e.g., maintenance mode).

    Solutions:

    1. Check Conveyor Segment Configuration:

      • Go to the MFS configuration in SAP and verify that the conveyor segments are correctly defined and active.
      • Ensure that the conveyor segments are linked to the appropriate warehouse process types.
    2. Assign HU to Conveyor:

      • Ensure that the Handling Unit is properly assigned to a conveyor segment. You may need to check the HU's attributes and ensure it is eligible for movement on the conveyor.
    3. Review Warehouse Process Types:

      • Check the configuration of the warehouse process types to ensure they are set up to utilize conveyor segments. Adjust the settings if necessary.
    4. Verify Movement Type:

      • Ensure that the movement type being used is compatible with the conveyor system. If not, consider changing the movement type or adjusting the configuration.
    5. Check System Status:

      • Verify the status of the conveyor system and the specific conveyor segment. If it is in maintenance mode or any other non-operational status, you may need to change it back to operational.
    6. Consult Logs and Documentation:

      • Review system logs for any additional error messages or warnings that may provide more context about the issue.
      • Consult SAP documentation or support for specific configuration steps related to MFS and conveyor segments.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: You may use transaction codes like /SCWM/MFS for MFS configuration or /SCWM/PRDI for handling unit management.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address known issues or provide additional guidance on configuring MFS and conveyor segments.
    • Support: If the issue persists after checking the above points, consider reaching out to SAP support for further assistance.

    By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and implement a solution to resolve it.
