The message means that the system cannot find the definition for the specified AI (Application Identifier) and barcode combination.
  Cause:
  
  
  Undefined Barcode: The barcode being scanned or entered does not correspond to any defined data in the system. This could be due to:
  
  The barcode not being set up in the system.
  The barcode being incorrectly formatted or containing invalid characters.

  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the EWM system regarding how barcodes and AIs are defined and processed.

  Solution:
  
  
  Check Barcode Definition:

  Review AI Configuration:
  
  Ensure that the Application Identifier (AI) is correctly configured in the system. You may need to check the settings in the EWM configuration to ensure that the AI is recognized.
  
  
  
  Correct Formatting:
