This error typically occurs when you try to put away or move a handling unit into a storage bin that does not accept the type of handling unit you are working with.
  Cause:
  
  Mismatched HU Type: The handling unit you are trying to use has a different type than what the storage bin is configured to accept.
  Storage Bin Configuration: The storage bin may be configured to accept only specific types of handling units, and the one you are trying to use does not match those specifications.

  Solution:
  
  Check Handling Unit Type: Verify the type of handling unit you are trying to use. You can do this by checking the handling unit master data.
  Review Storage Bin Configuration: Go to the storage bin configuration in EWM and check the allowed handling unit types for that specific bin. You can do this in the configuration settings under the warehouse management area.
  Adjust Storage Bin Settings: If necessary, adjust the settings of the storage bin to allow the handling unit type you are trying to use. This may involve changing the configuration of the storage bin or creating a new bin that accepts the required handling unit type.
  Check Warehouse Process Type: Ensure that the warehouse process type associated with the storage bin allows for the handling unit type you are trying to use. You may need to modify the process type settings if they are too restrictive.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed guidance on handling unit types and storage bin configurations.
