• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AG814 - Rounding: &1 was rounded to &2 (base unit of measure). Reference: &3 &4 ?

  The SAP error message AG814 indicates that a value has been rounded during a calculation or data entry process. This message typically arises in the context of inventory management, material valuation, or financial transactions where precision is crucial, and the system has adjusted a value to conform to the defined base unit of measure.
  Cause:
  
  Decimal Precision: The value being processed has more decimal places than allowed by the base unit of measure. For example, if the base unit of measure allows for two decimal places, but the input value has three, the system will round the value.
  Configuration Settings: The rounding rules defined in the system for the specific material or transaction type may lead to automatic rounding of values.
  Data Entry Errors: Users may inadvertently enter values that exceed the allowed precision, triggering the rounding message.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Input Values: Check the values being entered to ensure they conform to the expected precision for the base unit of measure. Adjust the values accordingly before processing.
  Check Configuration: Review the configuration settings for the material or transaction type in SAP. Ensure that the decimal places and rounding rules are set correctly according to business requirements.
  Adjust Rounding Rules: If necessary, modify the rounding rules in the system to better fit the business needs. This may involve consulting with a functional consultant or SAP expert.
  User Training: Provide training to users on the importance of entering values with the correct precision to avoid rounding issues.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Base Unit of Measure: This is the unit in which the material is primarily measured and valued. It is crucial to understand how this unit interacts with other units of measure in the system.
  Rounding Rules: SAP allows for the configuration of rounding rules at various levels (e.g., material master, company code). Understanding these rules can help in troubleshooting and preventing future occurrences of this message.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes (e.g., MM02 for material master changes, or OBY6 for currency and rounding settings) to make necessary adjustments.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult SAP support or a technical consultant for further investigation.
