• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/WHO401 - Warehouse order already contains confirmed WTs. No deletion possible ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/WHO401 Warehouse order already contains confirmed WTs. No deletion possible typically occurs in the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module when you attempt to delete a warehouse order (WO) that has already been confirmed with work tasks (WTs). This means that the system has already processed some of the tasks associated with that warehouse order, and as a result, it does not allow the deletion of the order to maintain data integrity.
  
  Cause:
  
  Confirmed Work Tasks: The warehouse order you are trying to delete has one or more work tasks that have already been confirmed. Once a work task is confirmed, it is considered completed, and the system prevents any changes to the associated warehouse order.
  System Integrity: SAP EWM is designed to maintain data integrity and prevent inconsistencies in the warehouse management process. Allowing deletion of a warehouse order with confirmed tasks could lead to discrepancies in inventory
