Smart SAP Assistant

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/HUFUNCTIONS194 - HU &1 was posted for goods issue. No GR possible from stock in transit ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/HUFUNCTIONS194 indicates that a Handling Unit (HU) has been posted for a goods issue, and as a result, no Goods Receipt (GR) can be processed from stock in transit. This typically occurs in the context of warehouse management and logistics processes within SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM).
  Cause:
  
  Goods Issue Posted: The error arises when a Handling Unit has already been involved in a goods issue transaction. Once an HU is posted for a goods issue, it is no longer available for receiving (GR) because it is considered to be out of stock.
  Stock in Transit: The system recognizes that the stock is in transit and cannot be received again until the goods issue is reversed or the stock is returned to the warehouse.
  Incorrect Process Flow: The process flow may not be followed correctly, leading to attempts to perform a GR on stock that is already allocated for a goods issue.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check HU Status: Verify the status of the Handling Unit in question. If it has been posted for a goods issue, you will need to resolve that transaction before attempting a GR.
  Reverse Goods Issue: If the goods issue was posted in error, you may need to reverse the goods issue transaction. This can typically be done through the appropriate transaction in SAP EWM or by using the relevant movement type.
  Reallocate Stock: If the stock needs to be reallocated, ensure that the stock is returned to the warehouse or the appropriate stock type before attempting to perform a GR.
  Consult Documentation: Review the SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team for specific steps related to your version of SAP EWM, as the process may vary.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes in SAP EWM that deal with Handling Units, goods issues, and goods receipts.
  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to this error message for additional guidance or patches that may address the issue.
  Training and Documentation: Ensure that users involved in warehouse operations are trained on the correct processes for handling HUs, goods issues, and receipts to prevent similar issues in the future.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and continue with your warehouse operations. If the problem persists, it may be beneficial to engage with SAP support for further assistance.
