• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/SHP_RCV437 - TU is already actively assigned to a vehicle; assignment not possible ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/SHP_RCV437 indicates that a Transportation Unit (TU) is already actively assigned to a vehicle, and therefore, it cannot be assigned to another vehicle. This situation typically arises in the context of warehouse management and transportation logistics within the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module.
  
  Cause:
  
  Active Assignment: The TU is currently assigned to a vehicle for transportation, and the system does not allow reassigning it to another vehicle while it is still in use.
  System Configuration: There may be specific configurations or settings in the system that prevent the reassignment of TUs once they are assigned to a vehicle.
  Incomplete Processes: The TU may be in the middle of a process (e.g., loading, unloading) that requires it to remain assigned to the current vehicle.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Current Assignments: Verify the current assignment of the TU. You can do this by checking the transportation order or the vehicle assignment in the system.
