  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/UI_PACKING404 - Mix of transit HUs and normal HUs in HU-hierarchy is not allowed ?
    The SAP error message /SCWM/UI_PACKING404 indicates that there is a mix of transit Handling Units (HUs) and normal HUs in the HU hierarchy, which is not allowed in the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) system. This error typically arises when you are trying to pack or process HUs that belong to different categories in a single operation.
