  SAP Error Message: VH135
  Message Text:
  
  Dimensions of the units & and & are not identical
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when there is a mismatch in the dimensional data (length, width, height) between two units of measure involved in a transaction or process. Typically, this happens in handling unit management or packing processes where the system expects the dimensions of the units to be identical or compatible but finds differences.
  For example, when you try to pack or unpack handling units (HUs), or when you try to assign one unit to another, SAP checks the dimensions of the units involved. If the dimensions (length, width, height) of the source and target units differ, the system throws this error.
  
  When does it occur?
  
  During packing or unpacking of handling units.
  When creating or changing handling units.
  When transferring or combining handling units.
  When the system expects units to have identical dimensions for certain operations but finds discrepancies.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Dimensions of the Units:
  
  Go to the handling unit display or change transaction (e.g., HU02, HU03).
  Verify the length, width, and height of the units involved.
  Compare the dimensions of the two units mentioned in the error message.
  
  
  
  Correct the Dimensions:
  
  If the dimensions are incorrect or inconsistent, update the master data or handling unit data to ensure they match.
  This might involve correcting the packaging material master data (transaction PK03) or the handling unit type.
  
  
  
  Use Compatible Units:
  
  Ensure that the units you are trying to combine or pack together are compatible in terms of dimensions.
  If necessary, use a different handling unit type or packaging material that matches the required dimensions.
  
  
  
  Check Customizing Settings:
  
  In some cases, the system might be set to enforce strict dimension checks.
  Review the customizing settings for handling unit management (SPRO ? Logistics Execution ? Handling Unit Management) to see if dimension checks can be adjusted or relaxed, if business processes allow.
  
  
  
  Recreate Handling Units:
  
  If the handling units are incorrectly created, consider deleting and recreating them with correct dimensions.
