Transfer order must have at least one item

Question:
Dear all,
I am new to SAP WM module.
When I attempt to create a putaway transfer order in background based on a transfer requirement using transaction LB10, I receive the subject message
Transfer order must have at least one item
What is the meaning of the message and how can I configure the system to have it proceed?
Thanks very much in advance.
Answer:
Try it first in foreground.
Do you have to manipulate anything, or does it work without any manual change or entry anywhere?
Answer:
I tried in the foreground using transaction LT04.
To have TO item generated I need to manually input the destination target quantity in the palletization screen. And then press putaway background button.
Answer:
Sounds like you do not have the palletization data maintained in WM2 view of material master.
Answer:
I then maintained the palletization data in WM2 view of the material master.
In the generate TO item screen of transaction LT04, I still cannot generate the item in background by selecting the 'putaway background' button. The SU field in palletization section of the screen is still blank. After inputting 1 in the SU field, the item can be generated in background.
How can I have the SU field determined in LT04?
Answer:
Give me examples.
what quantity do you want to transfer? What is the quantity of the TR ?
what did you maintain as palletization data in WM2 view of material master?
This SU field is usually calculated based on this info. I never needed to correct anything here, execpt where I have alternative palletization data and want use the alternative instead of the standard pallet.
