  Check Freight Header and Legs: Review the freight document to ensure that the unit of measure at the header level matches the unit of measure for all legs. You can do this by navigating to the freight document and checking the details of both the header and the legs.
  Adjust Units of Measure: If there is a mismatch, adjust the unit of measure in either the header or the legs to ensure they are consistent. This may involve changing the unit of measure in the freight header or adjusting the legs accordingly.
