• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/TDC011 - Direct distance between bin &1 and bin &2: &3 ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/TDC011 is related to the Warehouse Management (WM) module in SAP, specifically in the context of the Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) system. This error indicates that there is a direct distance issue between two bins in the warehouse. The message typically reads as follows:
  Direct distance between bin &1 and bin &2: &3
  Cause:
  The error is triggered when the system calculates the direct distance between two storage bins (bin &1 and bin &2) and finds that the distance exceeds the predefined limit set in the system. This can occur due to various reasons, such as:
  
  Configuration Settings: The distance settings in the warehouse configuration may not be aligned with the actual physical layout of the warehouse.
  Incorrect Bin Master Data: The coordinates or dimensions of the bins may not be accurately defined in the system.
  Warehouse Layout Changes: If there have been changes in the warehouse layout (e.g., moving bins or changing their dimensions) without updating the system, it can lead to discrepancies.
  Distance Calculation Method: The method used for calculating distances may not be appropriate for the warehouse setup.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Bin Master Data: Verify the master data for the bins involved in the error. Ensure that the coordinates and dimensions are correctly defined.
  
  
  Review Configuration Settings: Check the configuration settings for distance calculations in the EWM system. Ensure that the distance limits are set appropriately based on the actual warehouse layout.
  
  
  Adjust Distance Parameters: If necessary, adjust the parameters for distance calculation in the system to reflect the actual distances in the warehouse.
  
  
  Recalculate Distances: If changes have been made to the warehouse layout, consider recalculating the distances between bins to ensure that the system reflects the current state of the warehouse.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific configuration settings related to distance calculations in EWM.
  
  
  Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists after checking the above points, consider reaching out to SAP support for further assistance.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may need to use transaction codes like /SCWM/MON (EWM Monitor) or /SCWM/BIN (Bin Master Data) to investigate the issue further.
  Warehouse Layout: Understanding the physical layout of the warehouse and how it is represented in the system is crucial for resolving distance-related issues.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address known issues or provide additional guidance on this error message.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and implement a solution to resolve it.
