• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/SHP_RCV666 - Loading not possible; loading is already completed for TU &1 ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/SHP_RCV666 Loading not possible; loading is already completed for TU &1 typically occurs in the context of the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. This error indicates that an attempt is being made to load a Transportation Unit (TU) that has already been marked as completed. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  Completed Loading: The primary cause of this error is that the loading process for the specified Transportation Unit (TU) has already been completed. This means that the system has already processed the loading activities for that TU, and no further loading actions can be performed.
  Incorrect Process Flow: The error may also arise if there is an attempt to load items into a TU that is not in the correct status for loading (e.g., if the TU has been closed or finalized).
  System Configuration: There may be configuration settings in the EWM system that restrict further loading actions once a TU is marked as completed.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check TU Status: Verify the status of the Transportation Unit (TU) in the system. If it is marked as completed, you will not be able to load additional items. You may need to create a new TU for further loading.
  Review Process Flow: Ensure that the process flow is being followed correctly. If you are trying to load items into a TU that has already been completed, you will need to adjust your process to avoid this situation.
  Reopen TU (if applicable): If your business process allows it, you may be able to reopen the TU for further loading. This typically requires specific authorizations and may involve changing the status of the TU in the system.
  Consult Documentation: Review the SAP EWM documentation or consult with your SAP support team for specific instructions on handling TUs and loading processes.
  Error Handling: If this error occurs frequently, consider implementing error handling procedures or training for users to prevent attempts to load completed TUs.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional guidance on handling TUs in EWM.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes in EWM, such as /SCWM/TO for managing transfer orders and /SCWM/TU for managing transportation units.
  User Roles and Authorizations: Ensure that users have the appropriate roles and authorizations to perform loading operations and manage TUs effectively.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to engage with your SAP support team or consult with an SAP EWM expert for further assistance.
