• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/RF_EN087 - Use 'Skip to End' and 'WO Split' for missing HU ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/RF_EN087 typically occurs in the context of Warehouse Management (WM) or Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) when handling handling units (HUs) during warehouse processes. This error indicates that there is a missing handling unit (HU) in the process you are trying to execute, and it suggests using the 'Skip to End' and 'WO Split' options as potential solutions.
  Cause:
  
  
  Missing Handling Unit: The primary cause of this error is that the system expects a handling unit to be present for the operation you are trying to perform, but it cannot find it. This can happen if:
  
  The HU was not created or was deleted.
  The HU was not properly assigned to the task or order.
  There is a mismatch between the expected and actual HUs in the system.
  
  
  
  Incorrect Process Flow: The process you are trying to execute may not align with the expected workflow, leading to the system not being able to find the required HU.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Use 'Skip to End': This option allows you to bypass the current step in the process and complete the task without the missing HU. This is useful if the HU is not critical for the completion of the task.
  
  
  Use 'WO Split': This option allows you to split the work order (WO) into smaller parts, which may help in managing the missing HU situation. This can be useful if you need to handle the remaining items without the missing HU.
  
  
  Check HU Status: Verify the status of the handling units in the system. Ensure that the HU you are trying to work with exists and is in the correct status for the operation.
  
  
  Review Task Assignment: Ensure that the handling units are correctly assigned to the relevant tasks or orders. If necessary, reassign or create the missing HUs.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed guidance on handling HUs and resolving related errors.
  
  
  Contact Support: If the issue persists, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert for further assistance.
