Symptom
When creating a mass bin generation using the "Define Storage Bin Structure" configuration activity, an error message occurs stating: "Format may only contain the characters C, N, and A" /SCWM/LT040.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Cause
The template can contain only C, N, A characters. They stand for:
- C - constant character common for all the bins
- N - number
- A - letter
Resolution
One of the possible causes of this error message is described below:
- The template should be fully filled
- The increment for each part of the structure should be greater than 0
- The template mustn't contain space characters. So even if a bin number contains a space, you need to put C in the template at that place.
