• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/LT384 - Storage type role &1 requires an available quantity at HU level ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/LT384 Storage type role &1 requires an available quantity at HU level typically occurs in the context of Warehouse Management (WM) or Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) when there is an attempt to perform a task that requires handling units (HUs) to have available quantities, but the system finds that the required conditions are not met.
  Cause:
  
  Storage Type Role Configuration: The storage type role defined for the storage type in question may require that handling units (HUs) have available quantities. This is often the case for storage types that are configured to manage stock at the HU level.
  Insufficient Stock: There may not be enough stock available at the handling unit level to fulfill the operation you are trying to perform (e.g., picking, putaway).
  Incorrect Handling Unit Management: The handling units may not be properly managed or may not exist in the system as expected.
  Stock Type Issues: The stock type (e.g., unrestricted, quality inspection) may not allow for the operation you are trying to perform.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Storage Type Configuration: Review the configuration of the storage type role in the system. Ensure that it is set up correctly to require available quantities at the HU level if that is the intended behavior.
  Verify Available Stock: Check the stock levels for the handling units in the storage type. Ensure that there are enough available quantities to perform the desired operation.
  Handling Unit Management: Ensure that the handling units are correctly created and managed in the system. You can use transaction codes like /SCWM/HU to check the status of handling units.
  Stock Type Review: Verify the stock type of the items in question. If the stock is in a restricted state (e.g., quality inspection), you may need to move it to unrestricted stock before proceeding.
  Adjust Inventory: If necessary, adjust the inventory levels to ensure that there are sufficient quantities available at the HU level.
  
  Related Information:
