  Check Data Consistency: Review the data in the specified column and row to identify the different units being used. Ensure that all entries in that column are using the same unit of measure.
  Standardize Units: If possible, convert all quantities to a single unit of measure before processing or reporting. This may involve adjusting the data in the source system or during data extraction.
  Adjust Report Settings: If the report allows for configuration, check the settings to ensure that it is set to handle or display quantities in a consistent manner.
  Data Validation: Implement validation checks in the data entry process to prevent mixed units from being entered in the future.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on handling unit of measure issues in your version of SAP.
