• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/HUFUNCTIONS006 - Not all HUs are found in storage types that allow repacking ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/HUFUNCTIONS006 indicates that not all Handling Units (HUs) are found in storage types that allow repacking. This error typically occurs in the context of warehouse management processes, particularly when trying to repack HUs in the Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module.
  Cause:
  
  
  Storage Type Configuration: The storage types where the HUs are currently located may not be configured to allow repacking. This means that the system does not permit the movement or modification of HUs in those specific storage types.
  
  
  HU Status: The status of the HUs may not allow repacking. For example, if the HUs are in a status that restricts movement (e.g., blocked, in transit), they cannot be repacked.
  
  
  HU Location: The HUs may be located in a storage type that is not designated for repacking operations. This could be due to the specific settings in the warehouse management configuration.
  
  
  Incorrect Selection: The selection criteria used to identify HUs for repacking may include HUs that are not eligible for the operation.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Storage Type Settings: Review the configuration of the storage types in your EWM system. Ensure that the storage types where the HUs are located are set up to allow repacking. This can be done in the Customizing settings under:
  
  Logistics Execution > Warehouse Management > Extended Warehouse Management > Define Storage Types.
  
  
  
  Review HU Status: Check the status of the HUs you are trying to repack. Ensure that they are not in a restricted status. You can do this by using transaction codes like /SCWM/HU to display the details of the HUs.
  
  
  Adjust Selection Criteria: If you are using a selection screen or a report to identify HUs for repacking, ensure that the criteria are correctly set to only include HUs that are eligible for repacking.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific details on handling HUs and repacking processes in EWM.
  
  
  Testing: After making the necessary adjustments, perform a test to see if the error persists. If it does, further investigation may be required to identify any additional configuration issues or restrictions.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as /SCWM/HU for handling units and /SCWM/PR for repacking processes.
  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to this error message for potential bug fixes or additional guidance.
  User Roles and Authorizations: Ensure that the user performing the repacking has the necessary authorizations to execute the operation.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and successfully perform repacking operations in your SAP EWM system.
