• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/WHO604 - Limit &1 is deactivated because planned shipping HUs exist ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/WHO604 Limit &1 is deactivated because planned shipping HUs exist typically occurs in the context of warehouse management within the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. This error indicates that a specific limit (like a storage limit or handling unit limit) is deactivated because there are planned shipping handling units (HUs) that are still associated with that limit.
  Cause:
  
  Planned Shipping HUs: The error arises when there are handling units that have been planned for shipping but have not yet been processed or completed. These planned HUs are preventing the system from deactivating the limit.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the warehouse management system that are not aligned with the current operations or planned activities.
  Incomplete Processes: The shipping process may not have been completed, leading to the existence of planned HUs that are still linked to the limit.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Planned HUs: Review the planned shipping handling units in the system. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction codes or reports in SAP EWM to identify any HUs that are still in a planned state.
  Complete or Cancel Planned HUs: If the planned HUs are no longer needed, you can either complete the shipping process for those HUs or cancel them if they are not required. This should allow the system to deactivate the limit.
  Adjust Configuration: If the limits are not set correctly, you may need to review and adjust the configuration settings related to the limits in the warehouse management system.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on handling limits and planned shipping HUs in your version of SAP EWM.
  Contact Support: If the issue persists after checking the above points, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert for further assistance.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes in SAP EWM, such as /SCWM/PRDI for displaying planned shipping HUs or /SCWM/WHO for warehouse operations.
