• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/QUI_WRKST029 - Item &1: Destination HU &2 can only be used after saving ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/QUI_WRKST029 typically occurs in the context of the Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module when working with handling units (HUs) and their destinations. The message indicates that the specified destination handling unit (HU) cannot be used until the current transaction has been saved.
  Cause:
  The error is generally caused by one of the following reasons:
  
  Unsaved Changes: The system requires that any changes made to the handling unit or the associated data must be saved before you can proceed with operations that involve the destination HU.
  Transaction State: The current transaction may be in a state that does not allow for the use of the destination HU until the current data is committed to the database.
  User Actions: The user may have attempted to perform an action (like moving, picking, or putting away) without saving the current state of the handling unit.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  Save the Current Transaction: Ensure that you save any changes made to the handling unit or related data before attempting to use the destination HU. Look for a "Save" button or option in the user interface.
  Check for Errors: After saving, check if there are any other error messages or warnings that need to be addressed.
  Re-attempt the Action: Once the transaction is saved, try to perform the action again that involves the destination HU.
  Review User Permissions: Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to perform the actions related to handling units and that there are no restrictions in place.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes in EWM that deal with handling units, such as /SCWM/PRDI for inbound deliveries or /SCWM/PRDO for outbound deliveries.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for Extended Warehouse Management for more detailed information on handling units and their management.
  Support: If the issue persists after following the above steps, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting the SAP Community for further assistance.
  
  By ensuring that you save your changes and understanding the context of handling units in EWM, you should be able to resolve the error effectively.
