• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HU_VV0C018 - Movement type &1 with special stock &2 not supported in VLMOVE ?

  The SAP error message HU_VV0C018 indicates that a specific movement type with a special stock indicator is not supported in the VLMOVE transaction. This error typically arises when trying to perform a stock movement that is not allowed for the specified movement type and special stock combination.
  Cause:
  
  Unsupported Movement Type: The movement type you are trying to use is not configured to handle the special stock type you are working with. For example, certain movement types may only be valid for unrestricted stock and not for special stocks like consignment, project stock, or returns.
  Configuration Issues: The configuration in the system may not allow the combination of the movement type and special stock. This can happen if the movement type is not set up correctly in the customizing settings.
  Special Stock Limitations: Some special stocks have specific movement types that are allowed, and using an unsupported movement type will trigger this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Movement Type Configuration: Review the configuration of the movement type in the SAP system. You can do this by navigating to the following path in the SAP Easy Access Menu:
  
  SPRO > Logistics Execution > Shipping > Transfer Order > Movement Types > Define Movement Types
  Ensure that the movement type is allowed for the special stock you are trying to use.
  
  
  
  Use Supported Movement Types: If the movement type you are trying to use is not supported, you will need to select a different movement type that is compatible with the special stock. Refer to the documentation or consult with your SAP functional consultant to identify the correct movement type.
  
  
  Check Special Stock Settings: Verify the settings for the special stock in the system. Ensure that the special stock type is correctly defined and that the movement types associated with it are properly configured.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or help files related to the specific movement type and special stock to understand the limitations and requirements.
  
  
  Contact SAP Support: If you are unable to resolve the issue through configuration changes or by selecting a different movement type, consider reaching out to SAP support for further assistance.
