  The SAP error message /SCWM/PUT_BIN_DET079 indicates that the system has detected that split during putaway is active for the specified storage type (&1). This typically occurs in the context of warehouse management processes in SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM).
  Cause:
  The error arises when the system attempts to perform a putaway operation, but the storage type in question has been configured to allow split putaway, and the conditions for executing this operation are not met. This can happen due to several reasons, such as:
  
  Configuration Settings: The storage type may be configured to allow split putaway, but the specific conditions for split putaway are not satisfied.
  Stock Type Restrictions: The stock type or the characteristics of the material being put away may not be compatible with the split putaway process.
  Warehouse Process Type: The warehouse process type associated with the putaway may not support split putaway.
  Quantity Issues: The quantity being put away may exceed the available capacity of the storage bin, leading to a situation where the system cannot split the quantity appropriately.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Storage Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for the storage type in question and verify if split putaway is indeed enabled.
  Ensure that the settings align with your warehouse processes and requirements.
  
  
  
  Review Warehouse Process Type:
  
  Check the warehouse process type associated with the putaway operation. Ensure that it is configured to allow split putaway if that is your intended process.
  
  
  
  Examine Stock Types:
  
  Verify the stock types being used for the putaway. Ensure that they are compatible with split putaway.
  
  
  
  Adjust Quantities:
  
  If the quantity being put away is too large for the available storage bin, consider adjusting the quantity or using a different bin that can accommodate the entire quantity.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or help resources related to EWM and putaway processes for additional insights and best practices.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making any configuration changes, perform a test putaway to ensure that the issue has been resolved.

  User Exits and BAdIs: If custom logic is implemented in your EWM system, review any user exits or BAdIs that may affect the putaway process.
