In an SAP S\/4HANA Embedded EWM system, Warehouse Orders are created successfully during outbound processing, but they are not automatically assigned to warehouse resources<\/strong> (pickers or forklift operators).<\/p>\n

Issue Description<\/h3>\n
    \n
  • \n

    Warehouse tasks are created successfully<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Warehouse Orders are generated<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    However, Warehouse Orders are not assigned automatically to resources<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    System Behavior<\/h3>\n
      \n
    • \n

      Warehouse Orders visible in \/SCWM\/MON<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      RF users logged into the system<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      Resources active and assigned to warehouse<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      No queue errors or system errors<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Despite this, Warehouse Orders remain unassigned<\/strong>, and pickers cannot see tasks on their RF devices.<\/p>\n

      \n

      Questions<\/h1>\n

      What are the most common reasons why Warehouse Orders are not assigned automatically to resources in SAP EWM?<\/p>\n
