• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/RF_DE262 - Multiple TUs Found ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/RF_DE262 Multiple TUs Found typically occurs in the context of the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) system when a user attempts to perform a task that involves handling Transport Units (TUs), but the system finds multiple TUs that match the criteria for the operation. This can happen during various processes, such as picking, putaway, or inventory management.
  Cause:
  
  
  Multiple TUs Matching Criteria: The most common cause of this error is that the system has identified more than one Transport Unit that meets the selection criteria for the operation being performed. This can occur if:
  
  There are multiple TUs in the same storage bin or location.
  The selection criteria used in the RF (Radio Frequency) transaction are too broad, leading to ambiguity.
  
  
  
  Configuration Issues: Sometimes, the configuration of the warehouse or the handling unit management may lead to situations where multiple TUs are incorrectly associated with the same task.
  
  
  Data Integrity Issues: There may be inconsistencies in the data, such as duplicate entries or incorrect assignments of TUs to tasks.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Refine Selection Criteria: When prompted with this error, check the selection criteria you are using. If possible, refine the criteria to ensure that only one TU is selected for the operation. This may involve specifying additional parameters or filters.
  
  
  Check for Duplicate TUs: Investigate the warehouse for any duplicate TUs that may be causing the issue. You can do this by reviewing the TUs in the relevant storage location and ensuring that they are unique.
  
  
  Review Configuration: If the issue persists, review the configuration settings in the EWM system related to TUs and handling units. Ensure that the settings are correctly defined to avoid ambiguity in TU selection.
  
  
  Use the Correct Transaction: Ensure that you are using the appropriate RF transaction for the operation you are trying to perform. Some transactions may have specific requirements for TU selection.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on handling TUs in your version of EWM. This may provide insights into best practices and troubleshooting steps.
  
  
  Contact Support: If you are unable to resolve the issue, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with SAP experts who can provide assistance based on your specific system configuration and usage.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide patches and updates that could resolve underlying issues.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes in EWM that deal with TUs, such as /SCWM/PRDI for picking and /SCWM/PUTAWAY for putaway processes.
  Training and Documentation: Ensure that users are trained on the proper handling of TUs and the use of RF transactions to minimize the occurrence of this error.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and implement a solution to resolve it.
