• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HUGENERAL130 - HU &1 is to be reassigned and contains &2 &4, but only &3 is to be copied ?

  The SAP error message HUGENERAL130 typically occurs in the context of handling Handling Units (HUs) in the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) or Logistics Execution (LE) modules. This error indicates a mismatch between the contents of a Handling Unit and the expected contents during a reassignment process.
  Cause:
  The error message "HU &1 is to be reassigned and contains &2 &4, but only &3 is to be copied" generally arises due to the following reasons:
  
  
  Content Mismatch: The Handling Unit (HU) you are trying to reassign contains items that are not compatible with the target location or the expected items. For example, if the HU contains multiple items (e.g., &2 and &4) but the system is set to only copy a specific item (&3), this will trigger the error.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the system that dictate how HUs should be handled during reassignment, which may not align with the current operation.
  
  
  Data Integrity Issues: There could be issues with the data integrity of the Handling Units, such as incorrect item quantities or mismatched item types.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check HU Contents: Review the contents of the Handling Unit (HU &1) to ensure that it contains the correct items. You can do this by navigating to the HU in the system and checking the item details.
  
  
  Adjust Reassignment Parameters: If you are trying to reassign the HU, ensure that the parameters for the reassignment are set correctly. Make sure that the system is configured to allow the copying of all items contained in the HU.
  
  
  Modify the HU: If necessary, you may need to split the HU or adjust its contents to match the expected items for reassignment. This can involve removing or adding items to the HU.
