• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/RF_EN749 - Use standard transaction to receive HU ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/RF_EN749 Use standard transaction to receive HU typically occurs in the context of handling units (HUs) in the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. This error indicates that the system expects the handling unit to be received using a standard transaction rather than through the RF (Radio Frequency) interface.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Transaction Usage: The error usually arises when an attempt is made to receive a handling unit using an RF transaction that is not configured to handle that specific operation.
  Configuration Issues: There may be a configuration issue in the EWM system that does not allow the RF interface to process the handling unit correctly.
  Handling Unit Status: The handling unit may be in a status that does not allow it to be received via RF, such as being already received or in a blocked state.
  
  Solution:
  
  Use Standard Transaction: Follow the error message's advice and use the standard SAP GUI transaction for receiving handling units. This could be transactions like LT01 (Create Transfer Order) or HU02 (Display Handling Unit) depending on your specific needs.
  Check Configuration: Review the configuration settings in the EWM system to ensure that the RF transactions are correctly set up to handle the receiving of handling units. This may involve checking the settings in the Customizing (SPRO) for EWM.
  Handling Unit Status: Verify the status of the handling unit in question. If it is already received or in a blocked state, you may need to resolve that issue before attempting to receive it again.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed information on handling units and RF transactions in EWM.
