• Message number: 791

• Message text: Only &2 decimal places are defined for unit of measure &1

What causes this issue?

Rounding to &V2& decimal places is defined in Customizing for values
entered in unit of measure &V1&. The order quantity entered indicates a
higher level of accuracy.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Check the entry. The value entered could lead to problems in subsequent
applications. Above all, problems can occur later on if the planned
order is converted to a production order or a process order without
changing the quantity. Processing this kind of order will be interupted
in several places by an error message (message RU 303).
