  Review Configuration: Check the configuration settings for process-oriented storage control in your SAP system. Ensure that the settings align with your warehouse processes and that they do not allow for multiple WPTs for a single HU.
  Data Consistency Check: Perform a data consistency check to identify any discrepancies in the handling unit data. Correct any issues found during this check.
