• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/UI_YMOVE109 - Storage type of storage bin &1 does not have role "Yard" ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/UI_YMOVE109 indicates that the storage type of the specified storage bin does not have the role "Yard." This error typically occurs in the context of warehouse management processes, particularly when dealing with yard management functionalities in SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM).
  Cause:
  
  Storage Type Configuration: The storage type associated with the storage bin is not configured to have the "Yard" role. In SAP EWM, storage types can be assigned different roles, and if the role is not set correctly, the system will not allow operations that require that role.
  Incorrect Bin Usage: The operation you are trying to perform may require the bin to be designated as a yard bin, but the current configuration does not support that.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Storage Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for storage types in SAP EWM.
  Navigate to the path: SPRO > Extended Warehouse Management > Master Data > Define Storage Types.
  Find the storage type associated with the storage bin in question.
  Ensure that the "Yard" role is assigned to this storage type. If it is not, you will need to modify the configuration to include the "Yard" role.
  
  
  
  Assign the Correct Storage Type:
  
  If the storage type cannot be changed to include the "Yard" role, consider using a different storage type that is configured correctly for yard operations.
  
  
  
  Review Bin Settings:
  
  Check the settings for the specific storage bin to ensure it is correctly set up for yard management.
