  The SAP error message /SCWM/PICKCART001 indicates that there are different confirmation methods for the handling unit (HU) being used in the picking process. This typically occurs in the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module when the system detects inconsistencies in the configuration of confirmation methods for the handling units involved in a picking cart operation.
  Cause:
  
  
  Inconsistent Configuration: The error usually arises when there are multiple handling units (HUs) involved in a picking process, and these HUs have been configured with different confirmation methods. For example, one HU might be set to confirm via a manual process while another might be set to confirm automatically.
  
  
  System Settings: The system settings for the warehouse or the specific handling units may not be aligned, leading to conflicts during the picking process.
  
  
  User Input: Sometimes, user input during the picking process may inadvertently select HUs with differing confirmation methods.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Configuration: Review the configuration settings for the handling units involved in the picking process. Ensure that all HUs have the same confirmation method set in the system.
  
  
  Standardize Confirmation Methods: If possible, standardize the confirmation methods for all HUs that are likely to be picked together. This can often be done in the warehouse management settings.
  
  
  Contact System Administrator: If you are unable to resolve the issue through configuration changes, it is advisable to contact your system administrator or SAP support. They can provide insights into the specific settings and help troubleshoot the issue further.
  
  
  Review Picking Cart Settings: If you are using picking carts, ensure that the settings for the picking cart are consistent with the handling units being picked.
  
  
  Testing: After making any changes, conduct tests to ensure that the picking process works smoothly without triggering the error message.
  
  
  Related Information:

  Documentation: Review the SAP EWM documentation for details on handling units, picking processes, and confirmation methods to better understand how they interact.
  
  
  Training: If this error is common in your organization, consider providing training for users on how to properly handle HUs and the implications of different confirmation methods.
  
  
  By addressing the configuration and ensuring consistency in the handling units' confirmation methods, you should be able to resolve the error and continue with the picking process.
