    The SAP error message /SCWM/HUFUNCTIONS282 indicates that the handling units (HUs) you are trying to process have been canceled due to a material document. This typically occurs in the context of warehouse management and handling unit management within the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module.

    Cause:

    The error message is triggered when:

    1. A material document has been created that cancels or affects the handling units you are trying to work with. This could happen due to various reasons, such as:
      • A goods movement that has been posted which affects the stock of the handling units.
      • A cancellation of a previous goods movement that involved the handling units.
      • Changes in stock status or inventory adjustments that impact the handling units.

    Solution:

    To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:

    1. Check Material Document: Identify the material document referenced in the error message (indicated by &1). You can do this by:

      • Using transaction code MB03 to display the material document.
      • Reviewing the document to understand what changes were made that affected the handling units.
    2. Review Handling Units: Check the status of the handling units involved:

      • Use transaction /SCWM/HU to display the handling units and see their current status.
      • Verify if the handling units are still valid or if they have been marked for cancellation.
    3. Reprocess or Adjust: Depending on your findings:

      • If the handling units are still needed, you may need to reprocess them after addressing the material document issue.
      • If the handling units are no longer valid, you may need to adjust your processes to reflect the changes made by the material document.
    4. Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the implications of the material document or how to proceed, consult your internal documentation or reach out to your SAP support team for guidance.

    5. Check for Custom Logic: If your organization has custom logic or enhancements in place, ensure that these are not causing unexpected behavior with handling units.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as /SCWM/HU for handling units, MB03 for material documents, and MB1A/MB1B for goods movements.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to handling units and material documents that might provide additional insights or solutions.
    • EWM Configuration: Review your EWM configuration settings to ensure that they align with your business processes and that there are no discrepancies that could lead to such errors.
