Clear HU object assignment key

[Former Member]

I have an issue where the HU assignment key on the HU status detailed view shows that the HU is tied to a specific delivery. The delivery has already been PGI'd, and the HU is not on the delivery. I need to know how to clear the HU object assignment so that I can pick this for a delivery and PGI it. I currently get an error that its already assigned to a delivery (when it's not).

if SAP tells you that the HU is assigned to a certain delivery, then believe it, as SAP had found an entry in a certain table before it issued the message to you.

Have an Abaper debug the program when the message is issued, and you will see the table entry that is causing this message.

Maybe it was earlier assigned to this delivery, and then removed, but for some reasons SAP did not clear all tables (maybe a bug, maybe a processing error).

Handling units is a wide area, so without knowing the exact message and its content it is not easy to give you a hand.

Use SE16 and search at table VEKP (evetuelly VEPO as well).

enter the delivery number in field VBELN_GEN when searching in table VEKP

if you dont find anything enter the delivery number in field VOBJKEY and search again

There was custom coding that was assigning the HU to a delivery.

Can you check in HU03 HU history and see HU status .Is it assigned ?. see which delivery then see the current delivery status in delivery follow on documents.If it is un assigned status it should have 12 status.Check the History and table status it will give some direction

I have checked the HU history and the delivery is not in there. In fact, in any delivery-related table, the handling unit is never found. The handling unit can be bin to bin transferred inside the warehouse, but cannot be unpacked or deleted without the error message popping up.

We believe it does have to do with a system bug, because these handling units at one time were on a transfer order to be picked for this specific delivery, however the transfer order was fully cancelled and never confirmed.

Then what is the staus now ?It should be 12 status. this you can see HU03 transaction here last column you can see HU status.Check in LS26 transaction see the material and handling unit details.If you want to unpack the HU you need to move RP1 storage type.For this you need to create TO and confirmation through LT09 transaction.
