What causes this issue?

The system attempted to create a <GL:transfer_order>transfer order</>

the transfer order item does not contain a SU number for the
corresponding storage type. The creation of a transfer order would lead
to data inconsistencies.
This error can only occur if the customer exit for storage unit
conversion is active and the customer exit cannot respond by issuing a
SU number.

System Response

How to fix this error?

Please check your customer exit. The customer exit must always issue a

If your customer exit is not active, please contact SAP.
