  The SAP error message /SPE/RET_CARR001 indicates that there is an issue with the handling unit (HU) in the context of a delivery. Specifically, the error states that the pick-up type "DL" (Delivery) must not contain a handling unit (HU) for the specified delivery.
  Cause:
  This error typically occurs in scenarios where the system expects a delivery to be processed without handling units, but the delivery in question has been assigned a handling unit. This can happen due to:
  
  Configuration Issues: The system configuration may not allow handling units for deliveries with the specified pick-up type.
  Data Entry Errors: Incorrect data entry during the creation or processing of the delivery.
  Business Process Misalignment: The business process may require a specific handling of deliveries that is not aligned with the current configuration.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Delivery Details: Review the delivery document to see if it has been assigned a handling unit. If it has, and the process does not require it, you may need to remove the handling unit from the delivery.
  
  
  Review Configuration: Check the configuration settings for the delivery and handling units in the SAP system. Ensure that the settings for the pick-up type "DL" allow for the use of handling units if that is required by your business process.
  
  
  Adjust Business Process: If the business process requires handling units for deliveries, consider changing the pick-up type or adjusting the process to accommodate handling units.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team to understand the specific requirements and configurations related to handling units and delivery processing.
  
  
  Testing: After making any changes, perform testing to ensure that the delivery can be processed without triggering the error.
