This error typically arises in the context of warehouse management processes, particularly when dealing with the distribution of goods and the handling of HUs.
  Cause:
  
  
  Missing Warehouse Tasks: The primary cause of this error is that the system cannot find the necessary loading warehouse tasks associated with the specified Handling Units. This can happen if:
  
  The warehouse tasks were not created for the HUs.
  The warehouse tasks were deleted or not properly generated during the picking or staging process.
  There is a mismatch in the configuration or settings related to warehouse task creation.
  
  
  
  Incorrect HU Status: The status of the HUs may not be appropriate for loading, which can prevent the system from generating the required tasks.
  
  
  System Configuration Issues: There may be issues with the configuration of the warehouse management system, such as settings related to task creation, HU management, or the overall logistics execution process.
