  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/RF_EN037 - Recommended HU &1 is not located on resource; first introduce as pick-HU ?

    The SAP error message /SCWM/RF_EN037 indicates that the recommended Handling Unit (HU) is not located on the specified resource, and it suggests that the HU needs to be introduced as a pick-HU before it can be processed. This error typically occurs in the context of warehouse management and handling units in SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM).

    Cause:

    1. Incorrect HU Location: The recommended HU is not physically present at the resource (e.g., storage bin, picking area) where the system expects it to be.
    2. HU Status: The HU may not be in a status that allows it to be picked or processed (e.g., it might be in a status that indicates it is not available for picking).
    3. Resource Configuration: The resource (e.g., a picking area or storage bin) may not be configured correctly to handle the recommended HU.
    4. System Configuration: There may be issues with the configuration of the warehouse processes or the handling unit management settings.

    Solution:

    1. Verify HU Location: Check the physical location of the recommended HU. Ensure that it is indeed located at the resource specified in the error message.
    2. Introduce HU as Pick-HU: If the HU is not currently designated as a pick-HU, you may need to perform the necessary steps to introduce it as such. This can typically be done through the SAP EWM interface by selecting the HU and changing its status.
    3. Check HU Status: Ensure that the HU is in a status that allows it to be picked. If it is not, you may need to change its status or move it to a different location.
    4. Review Resource Configuration: Ensure that the resource is correctly configured to handle the recommended HU. This may involve checking the settings for the storage type, picking area, or other relevant configurations.
    5. Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific instructions on handling HUs and resolving related errors.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes in SAP EWM, such as /SCWM/PRDI for picking and /SCWM/HU for handling unit management.
    • Warehouse Management Processes: Understanding the overall warehouse management processes in SAP EWM can help in troubleshooting issues related to HUs and resources.
