Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/UI_RF143 - Check digit of SSCC &1 is not correct; &2 is correct ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/UI_RF143 indicates that there is a discrepancy in the check digit of the Serial Shipping Container Code (SSCC) being processed. The message typically states that the check digit of the SSCC you provided is incorrect, and it also provides the correct check digit for reference.
  Cause:
  The check digit is a single digit that is calculated based on the preceding digits of the SSCC using a specific algorithm (usually the Modulo 10 algorithm). The error occurs when:
  
  The SSCC entered does not match the expected check digit.
  There may have been a typographical error when entering the SSCC.
  The SSCC may have been generated incorrectly in the system.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Verify the SSCC: Double-check the SSCC you entered for any typographical errors. Ensure that all digits are correct.
  
  
  Calculate the Check Digit: If you have the SSCC without the check digit, you can calculate the check digit using the Modulo 10 algorithm. This involves:
  
  Taking the first 17 digits of the SSCC.
  Applying the Modulo 10 algorithm to calculate the check digit.
  Compare the calculated check digit with the one provided in the error message.
  
  
  
  Correct the SSCC: If you find that the SSCC you entered is incorrect, enter the correct SSCC that matches the check digit provided in the error message.
  
  
  System Configuration: If the SSCC is generated by the system, ensure that the configuration for SSCC generation is set up correctly. This may involve checking the settings in the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more details on SSCC and check digit calculations.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SSCC Format: The SSCC is a 18-digit number, where the first 17 digits are the unique identifier and the last digit is the check digit.
  Check Digit Calculation: The check digit is calculated using the Luhn algorithm or Modulo 10 method, which involves summing the digits in a specific way and determining the check digit based on that sum.
  SAP EWM: If you are using SAP Extended Warehouse Management, ensure that your settings for SSCC handling are correctly configured.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or refer to SAP Notes for any known issues related to SSCC processing.
