      • Go to the transaction code OMJJ (or SPRO -> Logistics Execution -> Inventory Management -> Movement Types).
      • Look for the movement type you are trying to use and ensure that it is correctly configured.
    2. Define Reason for Movement:

      • Go to the transaction code OMJ4 (or SPRO -> Logistics Execution -> Inventory Management -> Movement Types -> Define Reasons for Movement).
      • Create a new entry for the reason for movement that corresponds to the movement type you are using.
    3. Check User Authorizations:

      • Ensure that the user executing the transaction has the necessary authorizations to perform the movement.
    4. Consult Documentation:

      • Review the SAP documentation or help files related to movement types and reasons for movement for additional guidance.
    5. Testing:
