  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/WM_SEL020 - *** RESOURCE*** ?

    The SAP error message /SCWM/WM_SEL020 *** RESOURCE*** typically relates to issues with resource selection in the Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. This error can occur when the system is unable to find a suitable resource for a specific task or operation, which can be due to various reasons.

    Causes:

    1. Resource Not Available: The resource you are trying to use may not be available or may be in a status that does not allow it to be selected.
    2. Resource Configuration: The resource may not be properly configured in the system, or it may not be assigned to the relevant warehouse or task type.
    3. Capacity Issues: The resource may have reached its capacity limits, preventing it from being selected for new tasks.
    4. Task Type Restrictions: The task type you are trying to execute may not be compatible with the selected resource.
    5. Resource Grouping: If resources are grouped, the grouping may not include the resource you are trying to use.

    Solutions:

    1. Check Resource Availability: Verify that the resource is available and not currently engaged in another task. You can do this by checking the resource status in the EWM system.
    2. Review Resource Configuration: Ensure that the resource is correctly configured in the system. Check the resource master data and ensure it is assigned to the correct warehouse and task types.
    3. Adjust Capacity Settings: If the resource has reached its capacity, consider adjusting the capacity settings or reallocating tasks to other available resources.
    4. Verify Task Type Compatibility: Ensure that the task type you are trying to execute is compatible with the resource. You may need to adjust the task type or select a different resource.
    5. Resource Grouping: If you are using resource groups, check the configuration to ensure that the resource is included in the appropriate group.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: You may use transaction codes like /SCWM/RSCONF to check resource configuration or /SCWM/RES to view resource status.
    • Logs and Monitoring: Check the application logs and monitoring tools in EWM to gather more information about the error and its context.
    • SAP Notes: Look for relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues related to this error message. SAP Notes can provide patches or additional guidance on resolving known issues.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages (message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.

An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
