  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/MONITOR177 - Qty open in WT for warehouse request &1 &2 is less than or equal to 0 ?

    The SAP error message /SCWM/MONITOR177 indicates that there is an issue with the quantity of open warehouse tasks (WT) for a specific warehouse request (WR) in the Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. The message states that the quantity open in the warehouse task is less than or equal to zero, which typically means that there are no items available to process for the specified warehouse request.

    Cause:

    1. Quantity Mismatch: The quantity specified in the warehouse request may not match the quantity available in the system. This can happen if the stock has been depleted or if there was an error in the inventory management process.
    2. Warehouse Task Status: The warehouse task may have already been processed or canceled, leading to a situation where there are no open quantities to work with.
    3. Incorrect Configuration: There may be configuration issues in the EWM settings that affect how quantities are managed and displayed.
    4. Data Inconsistency: There could be inconsistencies in the data between the warehouse request and the actual stock levels in the system.

    Solution:

    1. Check Warehouse Request: Review the warehouse request associated with the error message. Ensure that the quantity specified is correct and that it matches the available stock.
    2. Review Warehouse Tasks: Check the status of the warehouse tasks related to the warehouse request. If they have been completed or canceled, you may need to create new tasks or adjust the existing ones.
    3. Stock Overview: Use the stock overview transaction in EWM to verify the current stock levels for the materials involved. Ensure that there is sufficient stock available to fulfill the warehouse request.
    4. Reprocess Warehouse Request: If the warehouse request is still valid, consider reprocessing it or creating a new warehouse request with the correct quantities.
    5. Check Configuration: If the issue persists, review the EWM configuration settings to ensure that they are set up correctly for handling warehouse requests and tasks.
    6. Consult Logs: Check the application logs for any additional error messages or warnings that may provide more context about the issue.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: You may use transaction codes like /SCWM/PRDI (for processing warehouse requests) or /SCWM/PRDT (for processing warehouse tasks) to manage and monitor warehouse activities.
    • SAP Notes: Look for relevant SAP Notes that may address known issues or provide patches related to this error message.
