  Ensure that the option for "HU type check" is activated for that storage type.
  
  
  
  Adjust Handling Unit Types:
  
  If the HU type check is not required for that storage type, you may consider adjusting the handling unit types that are allowed in that storage type.
  This can be done in the same configuration area where you define the storage type.
  
  
  
  Review Warehouse Process Types:
