• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/PUT_BIN_DET078 - Dest. location is TU and stock type is temporary storage - no WT possible ?

  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.
