• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/VAS059 - Planned quantity can only be changed for the kitting activity ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/VAS059 indicates that there is an issue with changing the planned quantity for a specific activity in the Warehouse Management (WM) or Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module, particularly related to Value-Added Services (VAS) such as kitting.
  
  Cause:
  The error occurs when you attempt to change the planned quantity for a VAS activity that is not kitting. In SAP EWM, the planned quantity can only be modified for kitting activities because these activities involve assembling or combining different items into a single product. Other VAS activities may have different rules regarding quantity changes, and thus, the system restricts modifications to ensure data integrity and process consistency.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you should:
  
  
  Verify Activity Type: Ensure that you are working with a kitting activity. If you are trying to change the planned quantity for a different type of VAS activity (e.g., labeling, packing), you will not be able to do so.
