  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/TO_WHR055 - Warehouse request &1, &2 destined for TCD or MeDiCD (not a putaway item) ?

    The SAP error message /SCWM/TO_WHR055 indicates that there is an issue with a warehouse request that is destined for a TCD (Transport Control Device) or MeDiCD (Media Control Device) but is not a putaway item. This error typically arises in the context of warehouse management processes in SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM).

    Cause:

    The error can occur due to several reasons:

    1. Incorrect Item Type: The item associated with the warehouse request is not configured as a putaway item. This means that the system does not recognize it as an item that can be put away in the warehouse.
    2. Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the warehouse management system that do not allow certain items to be processed for putaway.
    3. Warehouse Request Type: The warehouse request may not be of the correct type for the operation being performed (e.g., it may be a transfer request instead of a putaway request).
    4. Master Data Issues: The material master data or the warehouse master data may not be set up correctly for the item in question.

    Solution:

    To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:

    1. Check Item Configuration:

      • Verify that the item in question is configured as a putaway item in the material master. You can do this by checking the relevant views in the material master record (e.g., Warehouse Management view).
    2. Review Warehouse Request:

      • Ensure that the warehouse request is indeed intended for putaway. If it is a transfer or other type of request, it may need to be processed differently.
    3. Check Warehouse Configuration:

      • Review the configuration settings in the EWM system to ensure that the warehouse is set up to handle the item type correctly. This includes checking the warehouse process types and the associated settings.
    4. Examine Master Data:

      • Ensure that the material master and warehouse master data are correctly maintained. This includes checking for any missing or incorrect data that could affect the processing of the warehouse request.
    5. Consult Documentation:

      • Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on the error message and related processes.
    6. Testing:

      • After making any changes, test the process again to ensure that the error has been resolved.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: You may need to use transaction codes such as /SCWM/TO to manage transfer orders or /SCWM/MON for monitoring warehouse processes.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
    • Support: If the issue persists, consider reaching out to SAP support or your internal SAP support team for further assistance.

    By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and implement a solution to resolve it.
