  SAP Error Message:
  
  WGDS_ENH_EMPTIES003 – Please enter a quantity
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs in SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) or related logistics processes when a required quantity field is left empty or zero during goods movement or warehouse task processing. The system expects a quantity value to proceed, and if none is provided, it triggers this message.
  Common scenarios include:
  
  Creating or confirming warehouse tasks without specifying the quantity of goods to be moved.
  Posting goods movements (e.g., goods issue, goods receipt) where the quantity field is mandatory.
  Handling packaging or handling units where quantity must be defined.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Enter a valid quantity:
  
  Ensure that the quantity field is filled with a positive number before saving or confirming the transaction.
  
  
  Check user input screens:
  
  Verify that the UI or transaction screens used for warehouse tasks or goods movements prompt for quantity and that the user enters it correctly.
  
  
  Review custom enhancements or validations:
  
  If this error appears unexpectedly, check if there are any custom enhancements, user exits, or BAdIs that enforce quantity checks and might be causing the message.
  
  
  Data consistency:
  
  Make sure the material master and warehouse master data are correctly maintained, especially units of measure and packaging information, as inconsistencies can cause quantity-related errors.
  
  
  Debugging:
  
  If the error persists, debug the process to identify at which point the quantity is lost or not passed correctly.
