• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/UI_GR084 - &1 HUs with unknown content created ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/UI_GR084 indicates that there are Handling Units (HUs) with unknown content created in the system. This typically occurs in the context of Warehouse Management (WM) or Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) in SAP.
  Cause:
  The error message is triggered when the system detects that there are Handling Units that have been created without any associated or identifiable content. This can happen due to several reasons, including:
  
  Incomplete Data Entry: During the creation of the Handling Unit, the necessary information about the contents (like material number, quantity, etc.) was not provided or was incorrectly entered.
  System Configuration Issues: There may be issues with the configuration of the warehouse management system that prevent proper identification of the contents of the Handling Units.
  Data Migration Issues: If data was migrated from another system or from an older version of SAP, there may be inconsistencies or missing data that lead to HUs being created without identifiable content.
  User Errors: Users may inadvertently create HUs without specifying the contents, especially if the user interface does not enforce mandatory fields.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Review Handling Units: Check the specific Handling Units mentioned in the error message. You can do this by using transaction codes like /SCWM/HU or /SCWM/PRDI to display and analyze the HUs.
  
  
  Update Content Information: If the HUs are found to be missing content, you can update them with the correct material information. This can often be done through the same transaction codes mentioned above or through the appropriate EWM transactions.
  
  
  Check Configuration: Review the configuration settings in your EWM system to ensure that all necessary fields are set up correctly and that there are no missing settings that could lead to HUs being created without content.
  
  
  User Training: Ensure that users are trained on the correct procedures for creating Handling Units, emphasizing the importance of entering all required information.
  
  
  Data Cleanup: If there are many HUs with unknown content, consider running a cleanup process to either delete or correct these entries, depending on your business requirements.
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes or updates that may address this specific error or provide additional guidance.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes in EWM/WM, such as /SCWM/HU, /SCWM/PRDI, and others that may help in managing Handling Units.
  SAP Documentation: Refer to the official SAP documentation for Extended Warehouse Management for detailed information on Handling Units and their management.
  Support: If the issue persists, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance, especially if it appears to be a bug or a deeper configuration issue.
