  The SAP error message /SCWM/QINSP063 Target HU must be in same storage type. Repacking not possible typically occurs in the context of warehouse management and handling unit (HU) operations within the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. This error indicates that the handling unit (HU) you are trying to repack or move does not belong to the same storage type as the target handling unit.
  Cause:
  
  Different Storage Types: The source handling unit (HU) and the target handling unit are located in different storage types. In SAP EWM, repacking operations require that both HUs be in the same storage type to ensure proper handling and storage processes.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the warehouse management system that restrict repacking between different storage types.
  Warehouse Process Type: The warehouse process type being used may not allow for repacking between different storage types.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Storage Types: Verify the storage types of both the source and target handling units. Ensure that they are the same before attempting to repack.
  Repack in Same Storage Type: If the HUs are in different storage types, you will need to either move the source HU to the same storage type as the target HU or choose a target HU that is in the same storage type as the source HU.
  Review Warehouse Process Configuration: Check the configuration of the warehouse process types to ensure that repacking is allowed between the specified storage types. You may need to adjust the settings if necessary.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's internal guidelines for handling unit operations to ensure compliance with best practices.
