  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /ACCGO/INV_UPDATE043 - No UoM conversion possible for material &1 from &2 to &3 for quantity &4 ?

    The SAP error message /ACCGO/INV_UPDATE043 indicates that there is an issue with unit of measure (UoM) conversion for a specific material during an inventory update process. This error typically arises when the system is unable to convert the quantity of a material from one unit of measure to another due to missing or incorrect conversion factors.

    Cause:

    1. Missing UoM Conversion: The primary cause of this error is that there is no defined conversion between the two units of measure (UoM) involved. For example, if you are trying to convert from "pieces" to "kilograms" and there is no conversion factor defined in the material master, the system will throw this error.

    2. Incorrect UoM Configuration: The UoM settings in the material master may be incorrectly configured, leading to the inability to perform the conversion.

    3. Data Inconsistencies: There may be inconsistencies in the data, such as missing entries in the UoM table or incorrect settings in the material master.

    Solution:

    1. Check Material Master Data:

      • Go to the material master record (transaction code MM03).
      • Check the "Units of Measure" view to ensure that the UoM conversion factors are correctly defined for the material in question.
    2. Define UoM Conversion:

      • If the conversion is missing, you can define it by going to the transaction code MM02 and updating the "Units of Measure" view.
      • Add the necessary conversion factors between the UoMs involved.
    3. Review UoM Settings:

      • Ensure that the UoM settings in the system are correctly configured. This includes checking the UoM table (T006) for the relevant entries.
    4. Check for Data Consistency:

      • Run consistency checks to ensure that there are no data inconsistencies in the material master or related tables.
    5. Consult Documentation:

      • If you are unsure about the correct UoM conversions, refer to the documentation or consult with a colleague who has expertise in material management.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • MM03: Display Material Master
      • MM02: Change Material Master
      • MM01: Create Material Master
      • T006: Unit of Measure Table
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to UoM conversions.

    • User Roles: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to make changes to the material master data.

    By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error and ensure that UoM conversions are correctly defined for the materials in question.
