• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/UI_PACKING145 - Batch will be deleted, as product is not subject to batch management ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/UI_PACKING145 indicates that a batch is being deleted because the product in question is not subject to batch management. This typically occurs in the context of warehouse management and packing processes within the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module.
  Cause:
  
  Product Configuration: The product you are trying to pack or manage is not configured to use batch management. This means that the system does not expect to track inventory for this product using batches.
  Batch Management Settings: The batch management settings for the material may not be activated in the material master record.
  Incorrect Batch Assignment: You may be trying to assign a batch to a product that is not set up for batch management, leading to the system attempting to delete the batch.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Master Settings:
  
  Go to the material master record (transaction code MM03).
  Check the "Basic Data" and "Plant Data" views to see if the batch management indicator is set. If the product should be managed in batches, ensure that the "Batch Management" checkbox is activated.
  
  
  
  Update Product Configuration:
  
  If the product should be subject to batch management, you may need to update the material master to enable batch management.
  If the product should not be managed in batches, ensure that you are not trying to assign a batch to it.
  
  
  
  Review Batch Assignment:
  
  Ensure that you are not trying to pack or assign a batch to a product that is not configured for batch management.
  If you are working with a batch-managed product, ensure that the correct batch is being used.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed information on batch management and how it applies to your specific scenario.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, test the packing process again to ensure that the error does not occur.
