This can happen for various reasons, and understanding the cause is essential for resolving the issue.
  Causes:
  
  Non-Existent HU: The Handling Unit you are trying to reference does not exist in the system. This could be due to a typo in the HU number or the HU may have been deleted or not created properly.
  HU Status: The HU may be in a status that does not allow it to be processed (e.g., it might be locked or in a status that prevents further actions).
  Data Synchronization Issues: If the system is integrated with other systems (like ERP), there might be synchronization issues leading to the HU not being recognized.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to view or manipulate the specified HU.
  Incorrect Warehouse or Storage Type: The HU might be associated with a different warehouse or storage type than the one being accessed.

  Check HU Status: Ensure that the HU is in a valid status for the operation you are trying to perform. You can check the status in the HU details.
  Correct Input: Double-check the HU number you are entering for any typographical errors.
  Review Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary permissions to access and manipulate the HU.
  Data Consistency: If the system is integrated with other systems, ensure that data is consistent across systems. You may need to run synchronization jobs or check for errors in the integration.
  Consult Logs: Check system logs for any additional error messages or warnings that might provide more context about the issue.
