  Error Message:
  VHUAP232 - Handling unit(s) already assigned to this order
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you try to assign a Handling Unit (HU) to a sales or delivery order, but the system detects that the HU is already assigned to the same order or document. In other words, the HU you are attempting to add or pack is already linked to the order, and SAP prevents duplicate assignment to maintain data consistency.
  Common scenarios causing this error:
  
  Attempting to pack or assign the same HU multiple times to the same delivery or sales order.
  Trying to create or add a HU that has already been created and assigned to the order.
  Data inconsistency or incomplete HU processing in the system.
  
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check HU Assignment:
  
  Verify if the Handling Unit is already assigned to the order or delivery.
