Check Rounding Profile: Review the rounding profile assigned to the material in question. Ensure that it is configured correctly to meet the business requirements.
- You can check this in the material master under the "MRP" or "Basic Data" views.
Adjust Scheduled Quantity: Modify the scheduled quantity of the production or purchase order to align with the rounding profile. This may involve increasing or decreasing the quantity to the nearest acceptable value as per the rounding rules.
Review Material Master Settings: Ensure that the material master settings are correct, particularly in the areas related to MRP and rounding.
- You can access the material master using transaction code MM03 and check the relevant views.
Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the rounding profile settings, consult SAP documentation or your organization's SAP support team for guidance on how to set up and use rounding profiles effectively.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
