• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message L3802 - Putaway of handling units into storage type & is not possible ?

  The SAP error message L3802, which states "Putaway of handling units into storage type & is not possible," typically occurs during the putaway process in warehouse management when the system encounters an issue with the specified storage type. Here are the common causes, solutions, and related information for this error:
  Causes:
  
  
  Storage Type Configuration: The storage type may not be configured to accept the handling units (HUs) being put away. This could be due to restrictions on the storage type or the handling unit type.
  
  
  Storage Type Capacity: The storage type may be full or may have reached its maximum capacity, preventing additional HUs from being put away.
  
  
  Storage Type Status: The storage type may be blocked or inactive, which would prevent any putaway activities.
  
  
  Handling Unit Characteristics: The characteristics of the handling unit (e.g., size, weight) may not match the requirements of the storage type.
  
  
  Warehouse Management Settings: There may be specific settings in the warehouse management configuration that restrict the putaway of certain types of HUs into specific storage types.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Storage Type Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for the storage type in the Warehouse Management module and ensure that it is set up to accept the type of handling units you are trying to put away.
  
  
  
  Verify Storage Type Capacity:
  
  Check the current occupancy of the storage type and ensure that there is enough space available for the handling units. If the storage type is full, consider moving some HUs to another location or increasing the capacity.
  
  
  
  Review Storage Type Status:
  
  Ensure that the storage type is active and not blocked. You can check this in the storage type master data.
  
  
  
  Examine Handling Unit Characteristics:
  
  Verify that the handling unit's dimensions and weight are compatible with the storage type's requirements. If not, you may need to adjust the handling unit or choose a different storage type.
  
  
  
  Adjust Warehouse Management Settings:
  
  Review the warehouse management settings to ensure there are no restrictions on the putaway process for the specific handling units and storage types involved.
