• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/RF_DE009 - Not possible to cancel loading; HU &1 is already loaded ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/RF_DE009 Not possible to cancel loading; HU &1 is already loaded typically occurs in the context of the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) system when you attempt to cancel a loading process for a Handling Unit (HU) that has already been loaded onto a transportation unit (like a truck or container).
  Cause:
  The error is triggered because the system detects that the specified Handling Unit (HU) is already in a loaded state, meaning it has been physically loaded onto a vehicle or transportation unit. This prevents the cancellation of the loading process since the system assumes that the goods are already in transit.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Status of the Handling Unit:
  
  Use transaction codes like /SCWM/HU to check the status of the Handling Unit. Ensure that it is indeed in a loaded state.
  
  
  
  Unload the Handling Unit:
  
  If you need to cancel the loading, you may first need to unload the Handling Unit from the transportation unit. This can typically be done through the EWM interface or using the appropriate transaction code.
  
  
  
  Adjust the Loading Process:
  
  If the loading was done in error, you may need to adjust the loading process. This could involve creating a new loading task or modifying the existing one.
  
  
  
  Consult with Warehouse Management:
  
  If you are unsure about the next steps or if the HU should not have been loaded, consult with your warehouse management team to understand the implications of unloading or canceling the loading.
  
  
  
  Check for System Configuration Issues:
  
  In some cases, the error may be due to configuration settings in the EWM system. Ensure that the system is configured correctly for handling loading and unloading processes.
  
  
  
  Review Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed guidance on handling HUs and loading processes in EWM.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Handling Units (HUs): In SAP EWM, HUs are used to manage the physical handling of goods. They can represent pallets, boxes, or any other type of packaging.
  Loading Process: The loading process in EWM involves assigning HUs to transportation units and managing the logistics of moving goods from the warehouse to the delivery point.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes in EWM, such as /SCWM/TO for transfer orders, /SCWM/HU for handling units, and /SCWM/LOAD for loading processes.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or refer to SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message.
