  Empty Handling Units: The primary cause of this error is the existence of empty handling units in the warehouse. This can occur if handling units were created but not filled with products or if they were not properly processed during inbound or outbound logistics.

  Identify Empty Handling Units: Use transaction codes like /SCWM/HU or relevant reports to identify the empty handling units in the warehouse. You can also check the handling unit management screen to see which HUs are empty.
  Remove or Fill Handling Units: 
  
  If the handling units are not needed, you can delete them or move them to a different location.
  If they are supposed to contain stock, ensure that the necessary stock is added to these handling units.
  
  
  Check Configuration: Review the configuration settings in the warehouse management module to ensure that they align with your business processes. This may involve checking the handling unit management settings.
  Process Completion: Ensure that all relevant processes (like goods receipt, goods issue, etc.) are completed correctly. Confirm any outstanding transactions that may be causing the handling units to remain empty.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to handling units and warehouse management for additional guidance on resolving this error.
