• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/MFS181 - HU data of HU &1 being adjusted to data of telegram ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/MFS181 indicates that there is a discrepancy between the Handling Unit (HU) data in the system and the data being received from the telegram (which is typically related to communication with automated systems, such as Material Flow Systems or Warehouse Management Systems). This error usually occurs in the context of the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module, particularly when dealing with Handling Units and their integration with automated systems.
  Cause:
  
  
  Data Mismatch: The data of the Handling Unit in the SAP system does not match the data being sent from the automated system (e.g., the Material Flow System). This could be due to:
  
  Changes made to the HU in the SAP system after the telegram was generated.
  Incorrect or outdated data in the telegram.
  Issues with the configuration of the communication between SAP EWM and the automated system.
  
  
  
  Timing Issues: If the telegram is processed before the HU data is updated in the SAP system, it can lead to inconsistencies.
  
  
  Configuration Errors: Incorrect settings in the integration between SAP EWM and the automated system can lead to data discrepancies.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Data Verification: Check the HU data in the SAP system and compare it with the data in the telegram. Ensure that both sets of data are consistent.
  
  
  Update HU Data: If there are discrepancies, update the HU data in the SAP system to match the telegram data, or vice versa, depending on which data is correct.
  
  
  Reprocess the Telegram: If the telegram is outdated or incorrect, you may need to resend or reprocess the telegram to ensure that the correct data is being communicated.
  
  
  Check Configuration: Review the configuration settings for the integration between SAP EWM and the automated system. Ensure that all settings are correct and that there are no issues with the communication protocols.
  
  
  Monitor Timing: Ensure that the timing of data updates and telegram processing is managed properly to avoid race conditions.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the /SCWM/MFS181 error for any specific recommendations or patches that may address the issue.
