  The SAP error message L2205 indicates that there is an issue related to handling units (HUs) in the system. Specifically, the message states that the handling unit is managed, but a posting change notice has not been provided for the handling units. This typically occurs in scenarios where you are trying to perform a posting change for a handling unit that is managed in the system.
  Cause:

  Solution:

  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific details on handling units and posting change notices. This can provide insights into any additional steps or requirements that may be necessary.
