  Error Message
  WSTRN029: Specify a CL_WSTN_PREPACK_DEFN object
  
  Cause
  This error occurs in the SAP Warehouse Management (WM) or Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) system when a process or function expects a prepack definition object (CL_WSTN_PREPACK_DEFN) but it is not provided or not correctly specified.
  
  The class CL_WSTN_PREPACK_DEFN represents the definition of a prepack (a predefined packaging unit or a set of products packed together).
  The system requires this object to perform operations related to prepacks, such as creating, changing, or processing prepack handling units.
  If the program or configuration calls a method or function module that requires this object and it is missing or not instantiated, the error is raised.
  
  
  When Does It Occur?
  
  During warehouse processes involving prepacks, e.g., creating handling units with prepacks.
  When customizing or enhancing warehouse processes that involve prepacks.
  When using BAdIs, user exits, or custom code that deals with prepack handling units but does not supply the required object.
  Possibly during packing or unpacking processes in EWM or WM.
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check the Code or Configuration:
  
  Ensure that the CL_WSTN_PREPACK_DEFN object is correctly instantiated and passed to the relevant method or function.
  If you are developing or enhancing code, instantiate the class properly, for example:
  DATA: lo_prepack_defn TYPE REF TO cl_wstn_prepack_defn.
  lo_prepack_defn = cl_wstn_prepack_defn=>create( ... ).
  
  Pass this object to the function or method that requires it.
  
  
  
  Verify Prepack Definition Setup:
  
  In customizing, check if the prepack definitions are properly maintained.
  Make sure that the prepack definitions exist and are active in the system.
  
  
  
  Check BAdIs or User Exits:
  
  If you have implemented enhancements related to prepacks, verify that the object is correctly handled.
  Make sure the enhancement code does not omit the creation or passing of the CL_WSTN_PREPACK_DEFN object.
  
  
  
  Debugging:
  
  Use the debugger to check where the error is raised.
  Identify the point where the object is expected but missing.
  Trace back to see why the object is not created or passed.
