Here are some common causes, potential solutions, and related information regarding this error:
  Causes:
  
  Status of Handling Units: The handling units may be in a status that does not allow changes. For example, if the HUs are already confirmed, picked, or packed, they may be locked for further changes.

  Check HU Status: Verify the status of the handling units you are trying to change. If they are in a locked status, you may need to unlock them or change their status before making modifications.

  User Authorizations: Check the user roles and authorizations to ensure that the user has the necessary permissions to change handling units.
  Configuration Review: Consult with your SAP EWM configuration team to review the settings related to handling unit management. Adjustments may be needed based on business requirements.
