• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/PUT_BIN_DET252 - Storage type &1 role is "&2" and storage type is multi-depth ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/PUT_BIN_DET252 typically occurs in the context of warehouse management within the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. This error indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of a storage type that is set to multi-depth, but the role assigned to that storage type is not compatible with the operation being performed.
  Cause:
  
  Storage Type Configuration: The storage type in question is configured as a multi-depth storage type, which means it can store multiple items in a single bin. However, the role assigned to this storage type (indicated by "&2") may not support multi-depth storage.
  Incompatible Role: The role assigned to the storage type may be set to a type that does not allow for multi-depth storage, such as a role that is intended for single-depth storage.
  Warehouse Process: The warehouse process being executed may require a different configuration or role that is compatible with multi-depth storage.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Storage Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for the storage type in question.
  Verify that the storage type is indeed set up as a multi-depth storage type.
  Ensure that the role assigned to the storage type is appropriate for multi-depth storage.
  
  
  
  Adjust Storage Type Role:
  
  If the role assigned to the storage type is not compatible, consider changing it to a role that supports multi-depth storage.
  You can do this in the SAP EWM configuration under the storage type settings.
  
  
  
  Review Warehouse Process:
  
  Check the warehouse process that is being executed when the error occurs.
  Ensure that the process is designed to work with multi-depth storage types.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or help resources related to storage type configuration and roles in EWM for further guidance.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, test the configuration by attempting the operation again to ensure that the error is resolved.
