The SAP error message
/SCWM/UI_PACKING115 Open inactive HU WT exists. Repacking not possible
typically occurs in the context of handling units (HUs) and warehouse tasks (WTs) in the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. This error indicates that there is an open warehouse task associated with an inactive handling unit, which prevents the repacking operation from being completed.Cause:
- Open Warehouse Task: There is an open warehouse task that is linked to the handling unit (HU) you are trying to repack. This task may be in a status that does not allow for repacking.
- Inactive Handling Unit: The handling unit you are trying to work with is marked as inactive, which means it cannot be processed further until the associated tasks are resolved.
- System Configuration: There may be configuration settings in the EWM system that restrict repacking operations under certain conditions.
Solution:
Check Open Warehouse Tasks:
- Navigate to the warehouse task management screen in SAP EWM.
- Identify any open tasks associated with the handling unit in question.
- If the tasks are no longer needed, you may need to complete or cancel them.
Complete or Cancel Tasks:
- If the open warehouse task is valid, complete the task as required.
- If the task is not needed, you can cancel it to free up the handling unit for repacking.
Review Handling Unit Status:
- Check the status of the handling unit to ensure it is active.
- If the handling unit is inactive due to a previous operation, you may need to reactivate it or resolve any issues that caused it to be marked inactive.
Consult with Warehouse Management:
- If you are unsure about the status of the warehouse tasks or handling units, consult with your warehouse management team or SAP EWM administrator for guidance.
System Configuration Review:
- If the issue persists, review the system configuration settings related to handling units and warehouse tasks to ensure they align with your operational requirements.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
