• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/RF_EN162 - TU has no inspection document ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/RF_EN162 TU has no inspection document typically occurs in the context of Warehouse Management (WM) or Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) when dealing with handling units (HUs) or transport units (TUs) that are expected to have an associated inspection document for quality inspection purposes.
  Cause:
  
  
  Missing Inspection Document: The primary cause of this error is that the transport unit (TU) you are trying to process does not have an associated inspection document. This can happen if the goods receipt process was not completed correctly or if the inspection document was not created for the received goods.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the system related to quality management (QM) settings, which could prevent the creation of inspection documents.
  
  
  Incorrect Process Flow: The process flow being followed may not align with the expected steps in the system, leading to the absence of the required inspection document.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Inspection Document Creation: Verify if an inspection document was created for the transport unit. You can do this by checking the relevant transaction codes in SAP (e.g., QA32 for inspection lots) to see if there is an inspection lot associated with the TU.
  
  
  Create Inspection Document Manually: If the inspection document is missing, you may need to create it manually. This can typically be done through the quality management module in SAP.
  
  
  Review Configuration Settings: Check the configuration settings in the Quality Management module to ensure that the system is set up to create inspection documents automatically when goods are received. This may involve reviewing the settings for the inspection type and the relevant movement types.
  
  
  Process Flow Verification: Ensure that the process flow being followed is correct. For example, ensure that the goods receipt process is completed properly and that all necessary steps are followed.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on handling this error in your version of SAP.
  
  
  Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists and you cannot resolve it, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance, especially if this is a recurring issue.
