  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/MONITOR283 - Warehouse process type &1 does not allow movement to another bin ?

    The SAP error message /SCWM/MONITOR283 indicates that the warehouse process type specified (represented by &1) does not permit the movement of stock to another bin. This error typically arises in the context of warehouse management processes in SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM).

    Cause:

    1. Warehouse Process Type Configuration: The warehouse process type associated with the operation does not allow for the movement of stock to another bin. This could be due to the settings in the configuration of the warehouse process type.
    2. Stock Type Restrictions: Certain stock types may have restrictions that prevent them from being moved to different bins.
    3. Task Type Limitations: The task type associated with the movement may not support bin-to-bin transfers.
    4. Incompatible Movement Types: The movement type being used may not be compatible with the desired action of moving stock to another bin.

    Solution:

    1. Check Warehouse Process Type Configuration:

      • Navigate to the configuration settings for the warehouse process type in SAP EWM.
      • Ensure that the process type allows for bin-to-bin movements. If it does not, you may need to create a new process type or modify the existing one to allow this functionality.
    2. Review Stock Type Settings:

      • Check the stock type settings to ensure that the stock you are trying to move is not restricted from being transferred to another bin.
    3. Examine Task Type:

      • Review the task type associated with the movement. If it does not support bin-to-bin transfers, consider using a different task type that does.
    4. Movement Type Compatibility:

      • Verify that the movement type you are using is appropriate for the action you are trying to perform. If necessary, change the movement type to one that allows for the desired bin transfer.
    5. Consult Documentation:

      • Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed information on the specific warehouse process type and its capabilities.
    6. Testing:

      • After making any changes, conduct tests to ensure that the movement can now be performed without triggering the error.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: You may need to use transaction codes like /SCWM/MON to monitor warehouse activities or /SCWM/PRDI for process-related configurations.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address known issues or provide additional guidance on this error message.
    • User Roles and Authorizations: Ensure that the user performing the action has the necessary authorizations to execute movements in the warehouse.

    If the issue persists after checking these areas, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or a consultant who specializes in SAP EWM for further assistance.
