  The SAP error message 62087, which states "Maintain unit of measurement," typically occurs when there is an issue with the unit of measurement (UoM) settings in the system. This error can arise in various contexts, such as when creating or modifying material master records, sales orders, or other transactions that involve units of measurement.
  Cause:
  
  Missing UoM Definition: The unit of measurement you are trying to use is not defined in the system.
  Incorrect UoM Configuration: The UoM may not be properly configured in the relevant tables or may not be linked to the material or transaction type.
  Inconsistent UoM Settings: There may be inconsistencies in the UoM settings across different views of the material master or in related master data.
  UoM Not Active: The UoM might not be active or valid for the specific transaction or context you are working in.
