• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/WHO023 - Maximum limit value for &1 warehouse tasks was adhered to ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/WHO023 Maximum limit value for &1 warehouse tasks was adhered to typically occurs in the context of SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM). This error indicates that the system has reached the maximum limit for the number of warehouse tasks that can be processed or created at one time.
  Cause:
  
  Configuration Limits: The system has a predefined limit for the number of warehouse tasks that can be created or processed simultaneously. This limit is set in the system configuration.
  High Volume of Tasks: If there is a high volume of warehouse tasks being generated (e.g., due to a large inbound delivery or picking operation), it may exceed the configured limit.
  System Performance: The system may be configured to limit the number of tasks to ensure optimal performance and avoid overloading the system.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Configuration: Review the configuration settings for warehouse task limits in the EWM system. You may need to adjust the maximum limit for warehouse tasks if it is set too low for your operational needs.
  
  This can typically be done in the Customizing settings under the EWM area.
  
  
  
  Batch Processing: If the volume of tasks is high, consider processing them in smaller batches. This can help to stay within the limits set by the system.
  
  
  Monitor System Performance: Ensure that the system is performing optimally. If the system is under heavy load, it may be necessary to optimize performance or increase system resources.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to warehouse task limits for specific guidance on how to adjust these settings.
  
  
  Contact SAP Support: If you are unable to resolve the issue through configuration changes, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance.
