• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/RF_EN131 - Source HU does not exist ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/RF_EN131 Source HU does not exist typically occurs in the context of the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) system when trying to perform a task related to handling units (HUs). This error indicates that the system cannot find the specified handling unit (HU) in the database.
  Causes:
  
  Non-Existent Handling Unit: The handling unit you are trying to reference does not exist in the system. This could be due to a typo in the HU number or the HU being deleted or not created.
  Incorrect Warehouse Number: The handling unit may exist, but it is not associated with the warehouse number you are currently working in.
  HU Status: The handling unit may be in a status that does not allow it to be processed (e.g., it might be blocked or in a different process).
  Data Synchronization Issues: If there are issues with data synchronization between different systems (e.g., between EWM and S/4HANA), it may lead to this error.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Verify HU Existence: Check if the handling unit exists in the system. You can do this by using transaction codes like /SCWM/HU or /SCWM/PRDI to search for the HU.
  Check Warehouse Number: Ensure that you are working in the correct warehouse number and that the HU is associated with it.
  Review HU Status: Check the status of the handling unit to ensure it is not blocked or in a status that prevents processing.
  Recreate the HU: If the HU does not exist, you may need to create it again or ensure that it is properly generated during the inbound or outbound process.
  Data Consistency Check: If you suspect data synchronization issues, perform a consistency check or consult with your IT team to ensure that all systems are properly synchronized.
  Consult Logs: Check the application logs for more detailed error messages that might provide additional context for the issue.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes in EWM, such as /SCWM/HU for handling unit management and /SCWM/PRDI for inbound delivery processing.
