  Correct Data Issues: Ensure that all necessary data related to the transportation unit and delivery is complete and accurate. Correct any discrepancies that may be causing the issue.
  
  
  Check for User Authorizations: Ensure that the user attempting to perform the unloading has the necessary authorizations to do so.
