The SAP error message
/SCWM/HU_WM081
indicates that there is a capacity check issue against a specific bin type in the Warehouse Management (WM) module of SAP. This error typically arises when you are trying to put away or move a handling unit (HU) into a bin that has reached its capacity limit or does not meet the requirements for the handling unit being processed.Cause:
- Bin Capacity Exceeded: The bin type has a defined capacity, and the current operation would exceed that capacity.
- Bin Type Configuration: The bin type may not be configured to accept the specific type of handling unit or product.
- Handling Unit Characteristics: The handling unit may have characteristics (like size or weight) that are incompatible with the bin type.
- Warehouse Management Settings: There may be settings in the warehouse management configuration that restrict the movement of certain products into specific bin types.
Solution:
- Check Bin Capacity: Review the capacity settings for the bin type in question. Ensure that the bin has enough capacity to accommodate the handling unit.
- Adjust Bin Type Configuration: If necessary, modify the configuration of the bin type to allow for the handling unit or product being processed.
- Review Handling Unit Details: Check the characteristics of the handling unit to ensure they are compatible with the bin type.
- Reassign Handling Unit: If the bin type is indeed full, consider moving the handling unit to a different bin type that has available capacity.
- Adjust Warehouse Management Settings: If there are restrictions in the warehouse management settings, consult with your SAP WM administrator to adjust these settings as needed.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
