3059968 - "Specify the correct lower-level HU" error message during picking WT confirmation

Symptom

  • When confirming a picking warehouse task you get the following error message:
    Specify the correct lower-level HU
    Message no. /SCWM/L3696
     

Environment

  • SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition Warehouse Management
  • SAP Extended Warehouse Management (SCM-EWM)
  • SAP Extended Warehouse Management Warehouse Order Processing (SCM-EWM-WOP)

Cause

The warehouse task is created with the higher level HU as the source HU.
The physical stock is not linked to the highest level HU, but to the sub-HU.

Resolution

In nested HU pick scenario you may only confirm the warehouse task with source HU = Higher level HU in case you pick the full quantity of a homogeneous HU (no mixed stock).
In this case, you will pick both the higher-level and lower-lever HUs.

Otherwise, you need to specify the lower-level HU in which the stock is located during the warehouse task confirmation in foreground:

    1. Find the warehouse task
    2. Click "Confirm in Foreground"
    3. Change the "Source HU" field from higher-level HU to the lower-level HU and save
