Issue Description:

Goods Receipt or Delivery processing is completed successfully

Stock is visible in the warehouse

However, Warehouse Task for putaway or picking is not generated automatically

Users must manually create the WT to proceed with warehouse operations

System Behavior:

No error message displayed

Stock exists in warehouse

Delivery document appears correct

Queue processing completed successfully

However, automatic WT creation is not triggered.

Business Impact:

Warehouse operations delayed

Manual intervention required

Increased operational workload

Risk of processing delays

Checks Already Performed:

Warehouse Process Type configuration verified

Storage type search sequence maintained

Product master data checked

No queue errors found in SMQ2

No short dump observed

Despite these checks, Warehouse Task creation is not happening automatically.

My Questions:

  1. What are the most common reasons Warehouse Tasks are not created automatically in SAP EWM?

  2. Which configuration objects control automatic WT creation?

  3. How to troubleshoot this issue step-by-step in a real project?

  4. Which logs or monitors should be checked first?

Looking for practical troubleshooting guidance based on real project experience.

However, Warehouse Tasks (WTs) are not created automatically for picking.

Observed behavior:

  • Outbound Delivery Order (ODO) exists in EWM

  • Item status looks correct

  • No WT is created after delivery creation or release

  • No obvious error message is shown in the delivery

Checks already performed:

  • Warehouse Process Type maintained

  • Picking relevance active

  • Storage type search sequence configured

  • Queue and WOCR maintained

  • No short dump in system

Despite this, WT creation does not happen.

Questions:

  • What are the common root causes when WT is not created after outbound delivery replication?

  • Which EWM logs and monitors should be checked first?

  • How can this issue be systematically troubleshooted in a productive system?

  • Are there any specific status fields or customizing settings that are usually missed?

Looking for a step-by-step troubleshooting approach based on real project experience.
