• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/SHP_RCV050 - Goods movement is not possible for HU &1; select delivery &2 ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/SHP_RCV050 indicates that a goods movement cannot be processed for a Handling Unit (HU) because the associated delivery is not selected or is not in a state that allows for the movement. This error typically occurs in the context of warehouse management and logistics execution in SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM).
  Cause:
  
  Delivery Not Selected: The delivery associated with the Handling Unit (HU) is not selected in the system.
  Delivery Status: The delivery may be in a status that does not allow for goods movement (e.g., it may be completed, canceled, or in a state that restricts further processing).

  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the system that restrict the movement of goods for certain types of deliveries or HUs.
  
  Solution:
  
  Select the Delivery: Ensure that the delivery associated with the HU is selected in the transaction you are trying to execute. You may need to go back and select the appropriate delivery.
  Check Delivery Status: Verify the status of the delivery in the system. If it is not in a state that allows for goods movement, you may need to change its status or create a new delivery.
  Review HU Status: Check the status of the Handling Unit. If it is locked or not in a state that allows for movement, you may need to unlock it or ensure it is properly packed.
  Consult Configuration: If the issue persists, consult with your SAP configuration team to review the settings related to deliveries and HUs. There may be specific rules or restrictions that need to be adjusted.
  Transaction Logs: Review transaction logs or error logs for additional details that may provide insight into why the goods movement is not possible.
