The SAP error message
/SCWM/UI_POST008 Destination product &1 does not exist
typically occurs in the context of SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) when the system is unable to find a specified destination product in the database. This can happen during various processes, such as stock transfers, picking, or other warehouse operations.Cause:
- Non-Existent Product: The destination product specified in the transaction does not exist in the system. This could be due to a typo or because the product has not been created in the system.
- Incorrect Product Type: The product may exist, but it might not be of the correct type or category that the operation requires.
- Data Synchronization Issues: If the system is integrated with other systems (like ERP), there may be synchronization issues where the product data has not been updated or transferred correctly.
- Inactive Product: The product might exist but could be inactive or not available for the specific warehouse or storage type.
Solution:
- Verify Product Existence: Check if the destination product exists in the system. You can do this by navigating to the product master data in SAP EWM and searching for the product using its ID or description.
- Check Product Status: Ensure that the product is active and available for use in the warehouse. If it is inactive, you may need to activate it.
- Correct Typographical Errors: If the product ID was entered manually, double-check for any typographical errors.
- Review Product Type: Ensure that the product is of the correct type and is set up properly for the intended warehouse operations.
- Data Synchronization: If the product should exist but does not, check for any data synchronization issues between SAP EWM and other systems (like SAP ERP). You may need to run synchronization jobs or check for errors in the data transfer.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
