This error typically arises in the context of the Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module when trying to process a transportation unit that does not have any related activities.

    Cause:

    1. Non-Existent Activity: The specified Transportation Unit (TU) does not have any activities recorded against it. This could happen if the TU was created but not yet assigned any tasks or if the tasks were deleted or not properly created.

    Solution:

    1. Verify TU Existence: Check if the Transportation Unit exists in the system. You can do this by using transaction codes like /SCWM/TU to view the details of the TU.
    2. Check Activities: Look for any activities associated with the TU. If there are none, you may need to create the necessary activities (e.g., inbound deliveries, outbound deliveries) for the TU.
    3. Correct TU Number: Ensure that the TU number you are using is correct. Double-check for any typos or errors in the number.
    4. Recreate Activities: If activities were deleted or not created, you may need to recreate them. This can involve creating inbound deliveries or other relevant documents.

    • EWM Configuration: Review the configuration settings in EWM to ensure that they are set up correctly for handling transportation units and their associated activities.
