  Transaction Code: MM03 (Display Material)
  
  
  Review Order Details: Check the order details to ensure that the UoM specified matches the UoM defined for the material.

  Adjust UoM: If the UoM is incorrect, adjust it to a valid UoM that is compatible with the material.
  Check Conversion Factors: If using multiple UoMs, ensure that the conversion factors are correctly defined in the material master.
  Consult Configuration: If the issue persists, consult with your SAP configuration team to review the settings related to UoMs for the specific order type and material.
  User Training: Ensure that users are trained on the correct UoM usage to prevent manual entry errors.
