• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/HUGENERAL077 - Volume lies within tolerance for &1 ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/HUGENERAL077 Volume lies within tolerance for &1 typically occurs in the context of SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) when dealing with handling units (HUs) and their associated volume calculations. This message indicates that the volume of the handling unit is within the defined tolerance limits, which may not meet the specific requirements for processing or further actions.
  Cause:
  
  Volume Tolerance Settings: The system has defined tolerance settings for the volume of handling units. If the volume of the handling unit is within these tolerances, the system may not allow certain actions (like picking, packing, or shipping) to proceed.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the warehouse management system that dictate how volumes are calculated and what tolerances are acceptable.
  Data Entry Errors: Incorrect data entry for the dimensions or weight of the handling unit can lead to discrepancies in volume calculations.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Review Tolerance Settings: Check the tolerance settings in the EWM configuration. You may need to adjust these settings to allow for the volume of the handling unit to be processed.
  
  Navigate to the relevant configuration in the SAP EWM system and review the settings for volume tolerances.
  
  
  
  Verify Handling Unit Data: Ensure that the dimensions and weight of the handling unit are correctly entered. If there are discrepancies, correct the data.
