The SAP error message
/SCWM/WHO606 HU is created according to planned shipping HU &1
typically occurs in the context of the Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module when handling Handling Units (HUs). This error indicates that the Handling Unit (HU) you are trying to process is already associated with a planned shipping Handling Unit.Cause:
- Existing Planned Shipping HU: The error arises when you attempt to create or process a Handling Unit that is already linked to a planned shipping HU. This can happen if the system is trying to create a new HU based on an existing one that is still in use or has not been fully processed.
- Inconsistent Data: There may be inconsistencies in the data related to the HUs, such as incorrect status or missing information.
- System Configuration: The configuration settings in EWM may not be aligned with the intended process for handling HUs.
Solution:
- Check Existing HUs: Verify if the HU you are trying to create or process is already linked to a planned shipping HU. You can do this by checking the HU status in the system.
- Complete or Cancel Planned Shipping: If the planned shipping HU is still active, you may need to complete or cancel it before proceeding with the new HU creation.
- Review HU Configuration: Ensure that the configuration settings for Handling Units in your EWM system are correctly set up. This includes checking the settings for HU creation and processing.
- Use Transaction Codes: Utilize relevant transaction codes (like
/SCWM/HU
or/SCWM/PR
for processing) to manage and review HUs effectively.- Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidelines on handling HUs and resolving related errors.

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.
