  Cause:
  The error is triggered when you attempt to perform an operation (like canceling a warehouse task or a handling unit) that cannot be completed because there is an existing product handling unit (HU) linked to a warehouse task. The system requires that any associated warehouse tasks be canceled before you can proceed with the operation on the handling unit.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to manually cancel the warehouse task associated with the handling unit. Here are the steps to do this:
  
  
  Identify the Handling Unit (HU): Note the handling unit number mentioned in the error message (e.g., HU &1).
  
  
  Check the Warehouse Task (WT): 
  
  Go to the EWM transaction code /SCWM/PRDI (or the relevant transaction for your system).

  You can also use transaction /SCWM/WT to view warehouse tasks and filter by the handling unit.
  
  
  
  Cancel the Warehouse Task:
  
  Once you have identified the warehouse task, you can cancel it. This is typically done by selecting the task and choosing the option to cancel it (this may vary based on your system configuration).
  Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to perform this action.
  
  
  
  Retry the Operation: After successfully canceling the warehouse task, you can retry the operation that initially triggered the error.
