  The SAP error message /SCWM/CCHECK435 HU &1 could not be deleted from /SCWM/HUREF typically indicates that there is an issue with deleting a Handling Unit (HU) from the reference table /SCWM/HUREF in the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) system. This error can occur for several reasons, and understanding the cause is essential for finding a solution.

  System Lock: The HU might be locked by another transaction or user, preventing its deletion.

  Release Locks: If the HU is locked, you may need to wait for the lock to be released or manually release it if you have the necessary permissions.
  
  
  Data Consistency Check: Run a data consistency check to identify and resolve any integrity issues. You can use transaction codes like /SCWM/CHK to perform checks on the warehouse data.
  
  
  Consult Logs: Check the application logs for more detailed error messages that can provide insights into why the deletion is failing. You can use transaction code SLG1 to view application logs.
