• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/TO_WHR007 - Total of scheduled quantities exceeds quantity to be removed from storage ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/TO_WHR007 indicates that the total of scheduled quantities for a transfer order (TO) exceeds the quantity that is available to be removed from storage. This typically occurs in the context of warehouse management when there is a discrepancy between the quantities that are planned to be moved and the actual quantities available in the storage location.
  Cause:
  
  Quantity Mismatch: The scheduled quantities for the transfer order may have been incorrectly entered or calculated, leading to a situation where the total scheduled quantity exceeds the available quantity in the storage bin.
  Stock Changes: There may have been changes in stock levels (e.g., stock removal, stock adjustments) after the transfer order was created, which can lead to discrepancies.
  Multiple Transfer Orders: If multiple transfer orders are being processed simultaneously, it may lead to a situation where the total scheduled quantities across these orders exceed the available stock.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be issues with the configuration of the warehouse management system that affect how quantities are calculated or displayed.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Scheduled Quantities: Review the scheduled quantities in the transfer order and ensure they match the available stock in the storage location. Adjust the quantities if necessary.
  Verify Stock Levels: Check the actual stock levels in the storage bin to confirm that the quantities are accurate. You can do this using transaction codes like MMBE or LX03.
  Adjust Transfer Orders: If there are multiple transfer orders, consider adjusting them to ensure that the total scheduled quantities do not exceed the available stock.
  Recreate Transfer Order: If the transfer order is significantly out of sync with the stock levels, it may be easier to cancel the existing transfer order and create a new one with the correct quantities.
  Consult with Warehouse Management: If the issue persists, consult with your warehouse management team or SAP support to investigate any underlying configuration issues or system errors.
