• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/SHP_RCV087 - Only logical assignments to TU &1 can be deleted (&2 &3 &4) ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/SHP_RCV087 indicates that there is an issue with the logical assignments to a Transportation Unit (TU) in the Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. This error typically occurs when you attempt to delete a logical assignment that is not allowed due to the current status or configuration of the TU.
  Cause:
  The error message is triggered when:
  
  You are trying to delete a logical assignment (like a handling unit or a delivery) from a Transportation Unit that is not in a state that allows such an operation.
  The logical assignment you are trying to delete is linked to other processes or statuses that prevent its removal.
  There may be inconsistencies in the data or configuration that are causing the system to restrict the deletion.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Status of the TU: Ensure that the Transportation Unit is in a status that allows for logical assignments to be deleted. If the TU is in a status like "In Transit" or "Completed," you may need to change its status or complete the necessary processes before attempting to delete the assignment.
  
  
  Review Logical Assignments: Look at the logical assignments associated with the TU. Determine if there are any dependencies or linked processes that need to be addressed before deletion.
  
  
  Use the Correct Transaction: Make sure you are using the appropriate transaction or function to delete the logical assignment. Sometimes, using the wrong method can lead to errors.
  
  
  Check for Open Processes: Ensure that there are no open processes (like open deliveries or open handling units) that are linked to the TU. If there are, you may need to complete or cancel those processes first.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on handling Transportation Units and logical assignments in EWM.
  
  
  Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists and you cannot identify the cause, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance. They can provide more detailed insights based on your specific system configuration and data.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes in EWM, such as /SCWM/TO for managing transfer orders or /SCWM/TU for managing transportation units.
  EWM Configuration: Review your EWM configuration settings to ensure that they align with your business processes and that there are no restrictions that could lead to this error.
  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to this error message, as they may provide patches or additional guidance on resolving the issue.
