[SAP EWM] WBS-to-WBS transfer posting functionality in EWM

 Requirement  The issue involves performing a WBS-to-WBS transfer posting in the EWM site using a bulk upload program. Functional module /SCWM/CALL_POST was explored but did not enable the transfer posting functionality. The issue has caused delays in processing as each material must be handled individually. Solution Approach Functional module /SCWM/CALL_POST mainly calls transaction /SCWM/POST, but this is not a report and cannot be used in background mode. Perform the posting change in transaction /SCWM/POST. Use the mass change button within /SCWM/POST to update multiple lines with the same target data, if applicable. If the mass change button does not suffice, write a custom report that calls function module /SCWM/STOCK_CHANGE and pass all required data.
