    2. Clear Contents: If the shipping units are not empty, you will need to either remove the contents or ensure that they are properly accounted for in the system. This may involve:
      • Transferring the items to another location.
      • Completing any necessary transactions to clear the shipping units.
    3. Adjust Shipment: If you find that certain shipping units should not be included in the shipment, you may need to adjust the shipment by removing those units.
    4. Review Configuration: If this issue persists, it may be necessary to review the configuration settings in the SAP system related to shipping units and logistics to ensure they are set up correctly.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: You may use transaction codes like VL01N (Create Outbound Delivery) or VL02N (Change Outbound Delivery) to manage shipments.
