  Review Handling Units: Check the handling units you are trying to put away. Ensure that they are correctly managed and that there are no duplicates or errors in the handling unit data.
  
  
  Use Alternative Bins: If increasing the limit is not feasible, consider using alternative storage bins that have available capacity for the additional HUs.
