• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/SSCC019 - No external interval is maintained for internal basis number &1 ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/SSCC019 No external interval is maintained for internal basis number &1 typically occurs in the context of SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) when there is an issue with the handling of Serial Numbers or SSCC (Serial Shipping Container Code) numbers. This error indicates that there is no external interval defined for the specified internal basis number, which is necessary for the system to generate or manage SSCCs correctly.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Configuration: The error usually arises when the system is unable to find a mapping between the internal basis number (which is a unique identifier in the system) and an external interval (which is used for generating SSCCs).
  Incorrect Master Data: The master data for the SSCC or serial number management may not be properly maintained.
  Data Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the data related to the SSCC or serial number intervals.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for SSCC or serial number management in SAP EWM.

  Logistics Execution -> Extended Warehouse Management -> Goods Movement -> Serial Number Management -> Define External Number Ranges.
  
  
  
  
  
  Maintain External Intervals:
  
  If the external interval is missing, create a new external interval for the internal basis number.
  Ensure that the intervals are correctly defined and that they cover the range of SSCCs you intend to use.
  
  
  
  Review Master Data:
  
  Check the master data related to the internal basis number to ensure that it is correctly set up.
  Verify that the relevant settings for serial number management are correctly maintained.
  
  
  
  Test the Configuration:
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the configuration by trying to generate or manage SSCCs again to see if the error persists.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  If you are unsure about the configuration steps, refer to the SAP documentation or help guides related to SSCC and serial number management.
