    The SAP error message /SCWM/SHP_RCV055 indicates that a goods movement is not possible for deliveries, and it typically occurs in the context of the Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. The message suggests that there is an issue with the delivery document or the associated goods movement.

    Cause:

    1. Delivery Status: The delivery may be in a status that does not allow for goods movement. For example, if the delivery is already completed or canceled, you cannot perform further goods movements.
    2. Delivery Type: The delivery type may not be configured to allow goods movements in the current context.
    3. Warehouse Management Settings: There may be settings in the warehouse management configuration that restrict certain types of goods movements for specific deliveries.
    4. Document Flow: The document flow may not be correctly set up, leading to inconsistencies in the delivery and goods movement processes.
    5. Stock Type: The stock type associated with the delivery may not allow for the requested movement (e.g., stock in quality inspection).

    Solution:

    1. Check Delivery Status: Verify the status of the delivery document. If it is completed or canceled, you will need to create a new delivery or reverse the previous one if applicable.
    2. Review Delivery Type Configuration: Ensure that the delivery type is configured correctly in the system to allow for the desired goods movement.
    3. Examine Warehouse Management Settings: Check the warehouse management settings to ensure that they permit the type of goods movement you are trying to perform.
