• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/GOODS_MOVEMENT080 - HU &1 is located on resource &2 ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/GOODS_MOVEMENT080 indicates that a Handling Unit (HU) is located on a specific resource, which may prevent certain operations from being performed on that HU. This error typically arises in the context of warehouse management processes within the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when you attempt to perform a goods movement operation (such as picking, putting away, or transferring) on a Handling Unit that is currently assigned to a resource (like a storage bin, a vehicle, or a specific area in the warehouse). The system is designed to prevent operations on HUs that are not in a suitable state for the requested action.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Resource Assignment: Verify the current status of the Handling Unit and the resource it is assigned to. You can do this by using transaction codes like /SCWM/HU to display the details of the Handling Unit.
  
  
  Release or Move the HU: If the HU is indeed on a resource that is preventing the operation, you may need to either:
  
  Move the HU to a different resource that allows the desired operation.
  Release the HU from the current resource if it is no longer needed there.
  
  
  
  Review Warehouse Processes: Ensure that the warehouse processes are being followed correctly. Sometimes, the error can arise from incorrect handling of HUs during picking or putaway processes.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP EWM documentation or help files for more specific guidance related to your warehouse configuration and processes.
  
  
  Contact Support: If the issue persists and you cannot determine the cause, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert who can provide more tailored assistance.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as /SCWM/HU, /SCWM/GR, and /SCWM/IM for managing Handling Units and goods movements.
  Warehouse Management Configuration: Understanding the configuration settings in your SAP EWM system can help prevent similar issues in the future.
  User Roles and Authorizations: Ensure that the user performing the operation has the necessary authorizations to execute goods movements on Handling Units.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and take appropriate action to resolve it.
