The SAP error message
/SCWM/WHO603 Planned shipping HUs are used for HU determination
typically occurs in the context of handling units (HUs) in the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. This error indicates that the system is trying to use planned shipping handling units for the determination of handling units, which is not allowed in certain scenarios.Cause:
- Planned Shipping HUs: The error arises when the system encounters a situation where planned shipping handling units are being referenced for HU determination. Planned shipping HUs are typically used for planning purposes and should not be used in the actual handling unit determination process.
- Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the EWM system that are not aligned with the intended use of handling units.
- Process Flow Issues: The error can also occur if the process flow is not correctly set up, leading to the system attempting to use planned HUs inappropriately.
Solution:
- Check HU Configuration: Review the configuration settings for handling units in the EWM system. Ensure that planned shipping HUs are not being used in scenarios where actual handling units are required.
- Review Process Flow: Analyze the process flow to ensure that the correct handling units are being used at each step. Make sure that planned shipping HUs are only used in planning stages and not in execution.
- Adjust HU Determination Logic: If necessary, adjust the HU determination logic in the system to prevent the use of planned shipping HUs in the determination process.
- Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to handling units and their configuration in EWM for additional guidance.
- Testing: After making changes, conduct thorough testing to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that the handling unit determination process works as expected.

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.
