• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/HUGENERAL098 - HU &1 packed further in shipment. No goods receipt possible ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/HUGENERAL098 HU &1 packed further in shipment. No goods receipt possible typically occurs in the context of handling units (HUs) in the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. This error indicates that the handling unit (HU) specified in the message has already been packed into a shipment, and therefore, a goods receipt cannot be processed for that HU.
  Cause:
  
  HU Already Packed: The handling unit has already been included in a shipment, which means it is no longer available for a goods receipt.
  Incorrect Process Flow: The process flow may not be followed correctly, leading to attempts to perform a goods receipt on an HU that is already in transit.
  System Configuration: There may be configuration settings in the EWM system that restrict the processing of HUs that are already packed.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Shipment Status: Verify the status of the shipment to which the HU is packed. If the shipment is still open, you may need to unassign the HU from the shipment before proceeding with the goods receipt.
  Unpack the HU: If possible, unpack the handling unit from the shipment. This can usually be done through the EWM interface, allowing you to then perform the goods receipt.
  Review Process Flow: Ensure that the process flow is being followed correctly. If the HU should not have been packed yet, review the steps taken prior to this error.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's internal guidelines for handling units and goods receipts to ensure compliance with the expected processes.
  Contact Support: If the issue persists, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP EWM expert for further assistance.
