The SAP error message
/SCWM/PUT_BIN_DET078
indicates that there is an issue with the destination location being a Transportation Unit (TU) and the stock type being temporary storage, which prevents the creation of a Warehouse Task (WT). This error typically occurs in the context of warehouse management processes in SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM).Cause:
- Destination Location Configuration: The destination location is set as a Transportation Unit (TU), which is not compatible with the stock type of temporary storage for the operation you are trying to perform.
- Stock Type Restrictions: Temporary storage locations are generally used for short-term storage and may not allow certain operations, such as creating WTs for TUs.
- Warehouse Process Type: The warehouse process type associated with the operation may not support the movement of stock to or from a TU in temporary storage.
- Inconsistent Master Data: There may be inconsistencies in the master data configuration for the warehouse, stock types, or storage types.
Solution:
- Check Destination Location: Verify that the destination location is correctly configured. If it is intended to be a TU, ensure that the stock type is appropriate for the operation you are performing.
- Adjust Stock Type: If the operation requires a different stock type, consider changing the stock type of the destination location to one that allows WTs to be created.
- Review Warehouse Process Types: Check the warehouse process types configured for the operations you are trying to perform. Ensure that they are set up to handle movements involving TUs and temporary storage.
- Consult Configuration: Review the configuration settings in the SAP EWM system for temporary storage and TUs. Ensure that they are aligned with your warehouse processes.
- Test with Different Scenarios: If possible, test the operation with different stock types or destination locations to identify if the issue persists.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
