Available Handling Unit

Hi All!
In T-Code VL02N we have the outbound delivery overview and we do the processing of handling units here.
Now i have a requirement where in i have to suggest the user with the available Handling units which can be used for packing.This value i will display in a form.
I am not able to identify this field and also not sure whether this is available in the DDIC or whether it has to be dynamically retrieved through BAPI's or FM's
EXIDV gives the external Handling unit no but i want the collection of these available.
Can anyone throw light on this.

Praneeth

Hi,
Check the tables VEKP(Header) and VEPO(Item) tables.

Error:Assign handling Unit from one Process order to another process order

Hi Experts,
I am facing different issues in assigning handling unit from one process order to another.
Business process:
1. Two similar Process Orders are existing in the system
2. Delivery is created for first process order using LP10 for one or more components
3. TO is created in foreground using VL06P
4. TO is confirmed by providing in stock available Handling Unit (HU) / storage Unit details Using LT12
5. Customized transaction is used to reassign newly created HU (created in previous step) from first process order to second process order. As a result many steps are performed in background for delinking the HU from first process order to second process order (including creation of different TOs)
I am facing different issues in the process:
1. Sometimes while confirming the TO in step 4: error is received as "Reservation item 0065 with material 4013959300300 does not exist" OR "Reservation item with material does not exist"
2. If the TO is confirmed in step 4. I am facing error in step 5 as "Warehouse number does not exist (new selection required)"
Both these errors are standard errors and I could not find much information on them in SCN also.
If anyone can throw light on any of them then it would be great.
Please let me know if any additional information is required.
Thanks
Harsh Aggarwal

Hi Manish
Thanks for your response. Actually, the customized program is used only in fifth step and not till TO confirmation so that error is not related to Customized program. However, in some cases I am able to do the confirmation but the error is received in 5th step i.e. Warehouse number does not exist (new selection required)"
Any further guidance you can provide. I will ask ABAP to check the customized program but the error seems to be a standard error.

How to delete the item from Delivery?? (Handling Unit)

Dear SDNs,
I have a scenario of HU (Handling Unit).
Now here I have a case where the complete cycle is done. But end user now wants to change/delet the item in Delivery. So I have guided them to reverse all documents and it is done.
Now delivery is in Editable Mode. Now here when I try to Delete Delivery Line Item.. It is giving Error like "Item has already been packed and therefore cannot be deleted"
Diagnosis says "It is not possible to delete packed items."
Procedure says "Unpack the item from the shipping unit before you delete it."
Now when I select Line Item and click the PACK Button to go to the screen for "Processing of Handling Units for outbound Delivery XXXXXXX", it goes to the screen but here there is not Existing HUs available to Delete/Empty... whole screen is Blank.. even no Material to be packed...
I think user have proceeded the cycle without HU assignment.
So now I want to Delete the Line Items and want to insert fresh Items again...
Any inputs???
Thanks & Regards,
HP

Hi
Handling Unit Management
Purpose
You can use Handling Unit Management (HUM) to reflect packing-based logistics structures in the SAP System. Using this method, you track the movements of entire handling units and the materials they contain rather than tracking each material individually.
When you base logistics processes on handling units, goods movements processing is made easier, which in turn optimizes all logistics operations. This simplified processing includes the existing packing function in shipping and warehouse processing in the Warehouse Management system, which is expanded here.
Features
In the system, the handling unit (HU) expands on the shipping unit. Handling units can be nested, which means that you can create new handling units from several handling units as often as you like. At the material item level, HUs contain the complete material identification, the quantity, and, in the case of serial numbers, the respective object list. Handling units have unique, scannable identification numbers that can be developed according to standards such as EAN 128 or SSCC.
Handling units contain all inventory management information of the materials they contain that are maintained in Inventory Management. There are also status messages that you can call up at any time that indicate whether a handling unit is only planned or if the ship-to party has been notified of the arrival of this handling unit, or whether it is in the warehouse or has already been posted to goods issue. The integrated history function also records each business process in the life cycle of each handling unit, meaning that you can track the handling unitu2019s path and development at any time.
In HU-managed storage locations, all goods movements are executed through the specification of the respective HUs, and Inventory Management is performed through the handling units. If you are not working with HU-managed storage locations, you can use handling units (without stock information) as before in the delivery and in the shipment.
In HU-managed storage locations, materials can be managed in HUs only. Mixed stock (stock made up of packed and non-packed materials within the same storage location) is not supported. HUs can also be managed in interim storage types. Unpacking a material from an HU means that the stock of the material is posted to a storage location that is not HU-managed.
If you call up normal material movements in connection with an HU-managed storage location, a delivery is created, rather than a direct material posting, which has been the procedure up to this point.
Handling units are unique at client level in at least one system. Using an indicator at client level (see Unique Identification of Handling Units), you can control whether you are going to work with the HU functions. Since the handling unit is a physical unit, the central logistics processes are controlled through the input of the handling unit identification. These processes include putaway, picking, and stock transfers, as well as goods receipts and goods issues.
A handling unitu2019s mobility can be limited if quality checks are active. Changes in the stock category caused by a quality inspection are made using a posting change in the handling unit.
There is also a report available that you can use to find and display handling units using different selection criteria such as material, packing instruction, or storage location.
Although the handling unit is basically a unit that remains constant in the system, you can change it by repacking the materials it contains. All the packing functions, such as packing, repacking, and unpacking, are completely supported by the handling unit function. In this way, handling units can be created in production, during goods receipt, or in the packing areas of the warehouse. If you have automatic packing, the handling unit is created from the packing proposals defined in the system (from the packing instructions, for example).

Handling Unit Error

Hi All,
The scenario is STO from Plant(2003) to Plant(2002) within company and sales from Plant 2002 to customer.
VA01(Plant2002-no stock)->ME21N->VL10B(with HU-from Plant 2003)->VF01(JEX)->MIGO(GR w.r.t delivery,selecting via.HU)> VL02N-from Plant 2002(with same HU of Plant 2003)-> VF01.
When i am doing the outbound delivery from Plant 2002(with same HU of Plant 2003), iam getting the following error.
Handling unit 1000000023 has status 0040 - No Assignment to outbound delivery
Message no. HUDIALOG141
Diagnosis
While processing an outbound delivery, you can only assign handling untis that are currently in stock. This includes handling units with status '0020' = (stock not at HU STORAGE LOCATION) and '0030' (stock at HU STORAGE LOCATION).
Handling unit 1000000023 that you selected has a current status of 0040,
System response
Handling unit 1000000023 cannot be assigned to this outbound delivery.
Procedure
If the handling unit has status '0001' (planned) or '0010'-'0011' (realized), check whether you have to post goods receipt for the handling unit. If the stock is already in the warehouse, you can change the status manually by choosing 'Process handling unit'.
Kindly help me.
with regards

Hi Azeez,
I hope you are trying to pack the material in already used HU.
In your scenario, initially plant 2003 used a HU to deliver the goods to plant 2002. now after doing GR in 2002, you are PGI ing from 2002. You can only use existing HU's that are available for packing in plant 2002. If you try to use HU of plant 2003, if it is not defined in plant 2002 system won't allow to use it.
Thanks

URGENT DELIVERY HANDLING UNIT STATUS ERROR

Hi Experts when i am doing PGI i am getting the following error and system is not allowing to do PGI
ERROR: When trying to read the status of an object (HU 210868), a system error occurred: For object number HU0000210868 there is no status object.

Hi Ramesh,
The material is having the Packing ( Handling Units).
In delivery please do the Packing for the Materials because they have linked with the Handling Units. and Also check the wheather the Handling Units are configured properly.
For your Information please go through the Below which will help you further.
The SAP Handling Unit Management system allows you to manage the entire movement of the handling units and the materials they contain rather than tracking each material individually.

A handling unit is a physical unit that consists of the packaging materials (load carrier / packaging material) and the goods contained therein. A handling unit is always a combination of materials and packaging materials. All the information contained in the material items, such as batches and serial numbers, is always available by way of the handling units.
Handling units can be nested, meaning that you can also create new handling units from several handling units as often as you like.
Handling units have unique, scannable identification numbers that can be formed according to standards such as EAN 128 or SSCC.
Figure 1: Handling unit example
Structure
The handling unit object contains the following attributes:
     Identification number
     Dimensions
     Weight
     Volume
     Status
     Materials and quantities
     Packaging materials
     Packing instructions
A handling unit consists of a handling unit header and handling unit items. For identification purposes, it is given a unique number.
Handling unit header
The header data of a handling unit is divided in the following way:
     Weight/Volume/Dimensions
     General data
     Means-of-transport data
     Additional data
     Output determination procedure
For more information about each of these detailed points, see Editing detailed data for handling units.
Status
The handling unit is linked to general status management. In this way, the various physical states (planned or implemented) and other attributes (weighed, loaded, blocked or posted goods issue) of handling units can be documented.
You can use the HU_ST_INIT user parameter when you create handling units without object reference to set which initial status the handling unit is to have when it is created.
If you want to implement a status of your own, you can define a user-specific procedure for the packaging material type (see also Define Packaging Material Types).
Handling unit item
The items of a handling unit can consist of material items, packaging materials or other handling units that appear in an overview. For more information about this overview, see the Contents section of Editing detailed data for handling units.
To access the item data of an individual handling unit, select the handling unit concerned and choose Goto  Detailed HU data  Contents.
Integration
Handling units can be used in all processes within the supply chain.

SAP HU - SAP Handling Unit Management (HUM)
The SAP HU is used for tracking the handling units used by the materials. Some common handling units are packagings materials like cartons, pallets etc.
In the SAP system, the handling unit (HU) expands on the shipping unit. Handling units can be nested and you can also create new handling units from several handling units as often as you like. At the material item level, HUs contain the complete material identification, the quantity, and, in the case of serial numbers, the respective object list. Handling units have unique,

Please note that if you want to use 311 to move the material already in stock, but in a non HUM Storage Location and you want to transfer those materials into a HUM Storage Location 304. If this is the case you can use the transaction VLMOVE with the destination plant and storage location. Before that you have to create the HU with the transaction code HU02 Storage location: where the material is and the status: in stock.
Handling units are unique at client level in at least one system. Using an indicator at client level, you can control whether you are going to work with the HU functions. Since the handling unit is a physical unit, the central logistics processes are controlled through the input of the handling unit identification.

Handling Unit Details for Delivery needed (Table VEKP in R/3)

Hello all,
do you know if there is any standard extractor for handling unit details of an R/3 delivery?
I searched the Business Content and the available Extractors in R/3 but cannot find any.
If there is none, what would be the best way to get some content of Table VEKP e.g. VEKP-VHILM? Define an own structure and create a view? Can I also do this with the delta functionality?
Many thanks for your answers upfront.
Peggy

indeed my question "short description" is wrong, as one material can have only one base unit.
If the base unit of one material in my system is CRT (crate) and the description is "box with 30 table napkins packs", I need to know where store the description of the single "table napkins pack" or "pallete with 20 boxes of 30 table napkins packs" available under "Units of measure" of that material.
The full hierarchy (pack-Box_pallete) of the material units are available in one SAP material, but there is only one place for one description.
Thanks

Handling Units Configuration Steps

Can anybody please send me the step by step configuration steps for Handling Unit.
Thanks in Advace for your help.
SUNIL

The following process chain provides an example of how Handling Unit Management can be set up for integrated implementation in the relevant SAP components
Process Flow
Sales and Distribution
·        You receive a sales order for certain materials. If you have a special agreement with the customer as to the packaging in which this material is to be delivered, you can reflect this agreement by using existing (or creating) packing instructions and a corresponding packing-instruction determination record. You can use this agreement at any point during packing. If the agreement is limited to this particular order, the information is created in the order in the form of a packing proposal. This agreement is then also available during packing in repetitive manufacturing and in the delivery.
·        An availability check is run for the order items. If the system determines that the sales order cannot be filled by using the warehouse stock currently available, a requirement is created for production (in the case of in-house production) or for purchasing (in the case of external procurement).
Production
·        A manufacturing order (such as a work order) is created for the respective material on the basis of the order requirement.
·        The raw material required for production is reserved (if it is in stock).
Purchasing
·        If the raw material is not available in sufficient quantities, or if the material required for the sales order needs to be acquired externally, purchase orders are created from the requirements generated for material procurement.
Goods receipt
·        The vendor notifies the goods recipient of the delivery of the goods by using a shipping notification that also contains the packaging data. The shipping notification generates an inbound delivery that includes the packing information from the shipping notification. If there is no EDI notification, the inbound delivery must be created and packed manually for the purchase order. The handling units are put away and the inbound delivery is posted for goods receipt.
Quality Management
·        If the packing data is known in the inbound/outbound delivery, an inspection lot is created for these handling units and the stock is posted to quality inspection stock upon goods receipt/goods issue.
·        If the handling units have been put away in HU-managed storage locations, the handling units can be re-transferred since the stock is still managed through the handling unit.
Warehouse Management
·        Handling units with raw materials are provided in time for production in accordance with the production requirement.
Quality inspection
·        As soon as the quality inspection is complete, the stock in the handling units is posted to unrestricted-use stock or to scrap materials, depending on the usage decision.
Inventory Management
·        If the production storage location is not HU-managed, the goods issue of the raw material takes place through an explicit stock posting or through the verification from production.
·        If the production storage location is HU-managed, the goods issue takes place either after successful staging of the materials or through explicit specification of the handling unit.
Production
·        The production process is executed and the raw materials are used.
·        The handling units that result from this step are planned.
·        As a last step, the material that was produced is packed, either in production or after production. The handling units that are created in this way are confirmed as implemented. If there was no planning, the handling units are created directly as implemented handling units.
Quality Management
·        If the status of the handling unit changes from planned to implemented (or changes during creation of implemented handling units from production), an inspection lot is created for the handling units.
Inventory Management
·        The handling units are posted for goods receipt after verification from production (or in a separate step). Quality Management decides whether the handling unit is to be posted to unrestricted-use stock, inspection stock, or quality-inspection blocked stock.
Shipping
·        An outbound delivery is created from the sales order
Warehouse Management
·        Transfer orders are created for the materials to be delivered and the handling units are picked from stock. If only partial quantities of existing handling units are required, handling units are created for the picked materials.
·        The picked handling units are confirmed to the delivery.
Shipping
·        The handling units that were picked can be repacked in the delivery. If there is a packaging proposal in the sales order, the delivery can be packed automatically in accordance with this proposal.
·        Goods issue is posted for the handling units.
·        The customer is informed through EDI about this delivery.
