  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/UI_YMOVE020 - Immediate confirmation is not provided for warehouse process type & ?

    The SAP error message /SCWM/UI_YMOVE020 indicates that immediate confirmation is not provided for a specific warehouse process type in the Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. This error typically arises when the system is configured to require immediate confirmation for certain warehouse processes, but the process type in question does not support it.

    Cause:

    1. Configuration Settings: The warehouse process type may not be configured to allow immediate confirmation. This can happen if the process type is set up in a way that requires confirmation to be done in a different manner (e.g., batch confirmation).
    2. Process Type Restrictions: Some process types inherently do not support immediate confirmation due to their nature or the business processes they are designed to handle.
    3. User Role/Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to perform immediate confirmations for the specified process type.

    Solution:

    1. Check Configuration:

      • Go to the EWM configuration settings and review the configuration for the specific warehouse process type. Ensure that it is set up to allow immediate confirmation if that is the desired behavior.
      • Navigate to the relevant settings in the SAP EWM customizing (SPRO) and check the settings under Extended Warehouse Management > Warehouse Process Types.
    2. Adjust Process Type:

      • If the process type does not support immediate confirmation, consider whether it is appropriate to change the process type or to create a new one that allows for immediate confirmation.
    3. User Authorizations:

      • Verify that the user has the necessary authorizations to perform immediate confirmations. This can be checked in the user role assignments and authorization objects related to EWM.
    4. Consult Documentation:

      • Review the SAP documentation or help resources for more details on the specific warehouse process type and its capabilities regarding confirmations.
    5. Testing:

      • After making any changes, conduct tests to ensure that the immediate confirmation works as expected for the relevant warehouse process type.
