• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message QHU009 - You cannot have a single-unit inspection and HU inspection lots ?

  The SAP error message QHU009 indicates that there is a conflict between the single-unit inspection and handling unit (HU) inspection lots. This error typically arises when you attempt to create an inspection lot for a handling unit that is set up for single-unit inspection, which is not allowed in the system.
  Cause:
  
  Single-Unit Inspection: The system is configured to perform inspections at the individual item level rather than at the handling unit level.
  Handling Unit Inspection Lot: The system is trying to create an inspection lot for a handling unit, which is incompatible with the single-unit inspection setting.
  Configuration Settings: The configuration settings in the Quality Management (QM) module may not be aligned with the handling unit management settings.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can consider the following approaches:
  
  
  Change Inspection Type:
  
  If you need to perform inspections at the handling unit level, you may need to change the inspection type in the material master or the inspection plan to allow for HU inspections.
  
  
  
  Adjust Configuration:
  
  Review the configuration settings in the Quality Management module to ensure that they are set up correctly for handling units. This may involve adjusting the settings for inspection types or the handling unit management.
  
  
  
  Use Different Inspection Process:
  
  If single-unit inspection is necessary, consider using a different process that does not involve handling units. This may involve inspecting items individually rather than as part of a handling unit.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team to understand the specific configuration settings that may be causing this issue.
  
  
  
  Check Material Master Settings:
  
  Ensure that the material master settings for the relevant materials are correctly configured for the type of inspection you want to perform.
  
  
  
  Related Information:

  Quality Management Configuration: Familiarize yourself with the configuration settings in the QM module, particularly those related to inspection types and handling units.
  Handling Unit Management: Understand how handling units are managed in your SAP system, including how they interact with quality inspections.
  
  If the issue persists after trying the above solutions, it may be beneficial to engage with your SAP support team or a consultant who specializes in SAP QM and handling unit management for further assistance.
