  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VHUWM001 - Scenario 'Pick specific HU' has not been set for any storage type ?

    The SAP error message VHUWM001 indicates that the scenario "Pick specific Handling Unit (HU)" has not been configured for any storage type in the Warehouse Management (WM) module. This error typically arises when you attempt to perform a picking operation that requires specific handling units, but the system does not have the necessary configuration to support this operation for the storage type in question.

    Cause:

    1. Configuration Missing: The specific handling unit picking scenario has not been defined for the storage type you are working with in the Warehouse Management settings.
    2. Storage Type Settings: The storage type may not be set up to allow for specific handling unit picking, which is necessary for the operation you are trying to perform.
    3. Warehouse Management Settings: The overall warehouse management settings may not be properly configured to handle specific handling units.

    Solution:

    To resolve the error, you need to configure the storage type to support the "Pick specific HU" scenario. Here are the steps to do this:

    1. Access the Warehouse Management Customizing:

      • Go to the SAP Easy Access screen.
      • Navigate to Logistics > Logistics Execution > Warehouse Management > Interface > Handling Unit Management > Define Storage Type for Handling Unit Management.
    2. Define Storage Type:

      • In the configuration screen, find the storage type that is causing the error.
      • Check if the "Pick specific HU" scenario is assigned to this storage type.
      • If it is not assigned, you will need to add it. This typically involves selecting the appropriate options for handling unit management.
    3. Set Up Handling Unit Management:

      • Ensure that the handling unit management settings are correctly configured for the warehouse and storage type.
      • You may need to enable specific settings that allow for picking specific handling units.
    4. Testing:

      • After making the necessary changes, test the picking process again to ensure that the error has been resolved.

    Related Information:

    • Handling Units (HUs): In SAP, handling units are used to manage the physical packaging of goods. They can be pallets, boxes, or any other type of packaging that groups items together.
    • Warehouse Management (WM): This module in SAP is responsible for managing warehouse operations, including inventory management, picking, and shipping.
    • Customizing Transactions: You may need to use transaction codes like SPRO (to access the SAP Reference IMG) or OMH1 (to configure handling unit management) to make the necessary changes.

    If you continue to experience issues after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or refer to SAP documentation for more detailed guidance on handling unit management and warehouse configuration.
