In an SAP S\/4HANA Embedded EWM system, we are facing a status inconsistency between ERP and EWM during the outbound process.<\/p>\n

Issue Description:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  • \n

    Goods Issue (GI) is successfully posted in ERP<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Material document is created in ERP<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    However, EWM delivery status is not updated<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Outbound Delivery Order (ODO) in EWM still shows \u201cNot GI Posted\u201d<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Stock in EWM still appears available<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Business Impact:<\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    • \n

    • \n

    • \n

      Finance reports incorrect stock<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

        \n

        No open warehouse tasks<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n

        No obvious errors in delivery document<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n

        Application logs reviewed at basic level<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Despite this, EWM status does not synchronize with ERP.<\/p>\n
