  The SAP error message CI_DRAFTPRD_MESSAGE485 typically relates to issues with product master data, specifically concerning the texts associated with a product that are defined per unit of measure (UoM). This error can occur in various scenarios, such as during the creation or modification of product master data in the SAP system.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Texts: The error often arises when there are missing texts for a specific unit of measure in the product master data. Each UoM can have its own description or text, and if these are not maintained, the system will throw an error.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be configuration issues in the material master settings that prevent the proper assignment of texts to units of measure.
  Data Inconsistencies: If there are inconsistencies in the data entered for the product master, such as incorrect UoM settings or missing mandatory fields, this can trigger the error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Product Master Data: Go to the product master data (transaction code MM02 for modification) and check if the texts for the relevant unit of measure are maintained. Ensure that all required fields are filled out correctly.
  Maintain Texts: If texts are missing, you can add them by navigating to the relevant section in the product master data and entering the necessary descriptions for each unit of measure.
  Review Configuration: If the issue persists, review the configuration settings related to product master data and units of measure in the SAP system. Ensure that the settings align with your business requirements.
  Data Consistency Check: Perform a data consistency check to identify any other potential issues in the product master data that may be causing the error.

  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as MM01 (Create Material), MM02 (Change Material), and MM03 (Display Material) for managing product master data.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error message. SAP Notes can provide additional insights or solutions that may not be covered in standard documentation.
