• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/POHU037 - Requested qty. is higher than open qty. for split item with PSHU data ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/POHU037 Requested qty. is higher than open qty. for split item with PSHU data typically occurs in the context of warehouse management and handling unit management in SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM). This error indicates that the quantity requested for a particular handling unit (HU) exceeds the available quantity that is open for that item.
  Cause:
  
  Quantity Mismatch: The requested quantity for the handling unit is greater than the quantity that is currently available or open in the system.
  Split Item Handling: The error specifically mentions "split item," which means that the item in question has been split into multiple handling units, and the requested quantity is not aligned with the available quantities across these units.
  PSHU Data: PSHU refers to the handling unit data that is related to the product. If the handling unit data is not correctly maintained or if there are discrepancies in the stock levels, this error can occur.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Available Quantities: Verify the available quantity of the item in the warehouse. You can do this by checking the stock overview in the EWM or using transaction codes like /SCWM/ISU to see the stock levels.
  Adjust the Request: If the requested quantity is indeed higher than what is available, adjust the request to match the available quantity.
  Review Handling Units: If the item is split into multiple handling units, check the quantities in each handling unit. Ensure that the total quantity requested does not exceed the sum of the quantities available in all relevant handling units.
  Update PSHU Data: If there are discrepancies in the handling unit data, ensure that the PSHU data is updated and reflects the correct stock levels.
  Reprocess the Document: If the error occurred during a specific transaction (like a goods movement or transfer order), you may need to reprocess that document after making the necessary adjustments.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes in SAP EWM, such as /SCWM/ISU for stock overview and /SCWM/PRDI for handling unit management.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for Extended Warehouse Management for detailed information on handling units and stock management.
  User Roles: Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles and authorizations to view and modify stock levels and handling unit data.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or a functional consultant who specializes in EWM for further assistance.
