• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/SGI003 - Item type &1 not allowed for pickup ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/SGI003 Item type &1 not allowed for pickup typically occurs in the context of SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) when trying to perform a picking operation for an item that is not configured to be picked. This can happen for various reasons, and understanding the cause is essential for resolving the issue.
  Cause:
  
  
  Item Type Configuration: The item type (e.g., raw materials, finished goods, etc.) is not set up to allow picking in the system. This could be due to the item type being designated for other purposes, such as non-pickable stock or stock that is not meant for sales.
  
  
  Warehouse Management Settings: The warehouse management settings may restrict certain item types from being picked. This could be due to specific configurations in the warehouse or storage type settings.
  
  
  Product Master Data: The product master data may not have the correct settings for the item type, which can lead to restrictions on picking.
  
  
  Stock Type: The stock type of the item (e.g., blocked stock, quality inspection stock) may not be allowed for picking.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Item Type Configuration: Review the configuration of the item type in the system. Ensure that the item type is allowed for picking. This can be done in the customizing settings of SAP EWM.
  
  
  Adjust Warehouse Management Settings: If the warehouse management settings are too restrictive, consider adjusting them to allow the item type for picking. This may involve changing the settings for the relevant storage types or warehouse processes.
  
  
  Review Product Master Data: Check the product master data for the item in question. Ensure that the item is set up correctly and that the picking settings are appropriate.
  
  
  Check Stock Type: Verify the stock type of the item. If the item is in a stock type that does not allow picking (like blocked or quality inspection stock), you may need to move it to a pickable stock type.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific configuration steps related to item types and picking processes.
  
  
  Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists after checking the above points, consider reaching out to SAP support for further assistance.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may need to use transaction codes like /SCWM/MON for monitoring or /SCWM/PRDCT for product master data to investigate the issue further.
  Customizing Path: The relevant customizing path in SAP EWM can be found under SPRO -> Logistics Execution -> Extended Warehouse Management -> Master Data -> Product -> Define Product Types.
  User Exits and BAdIs: If there are custom developments in your SAP system, check for any user exits or BAdIs that might affect the picking process for specific item types.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and implement the necessary changes to resolve it.
