• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CN089 - The unit & for the component & only permits & decimal places ?

  The SAP error message CN089 indicates that there is a discrepancy between the number of decimal places allowed for a specific unit of measure (UoM) and the number of decimal places that have been entered for a component in a transaction. This error typically occurs in the context of materials management, production planning, or project systems where components are being defined or used.
  Cause:
  
  Unit of Measure Configuration: Each unit of measure in SAP can be configured to allow a specific number of decimal places. If the unit of measure for a component is set to allow fewer decimal places than what has been entered, this error will occur.
  Data Entry Error: The user may have entered a quantity with more decimal places than the unit of measure allows.
  Material Master Settings: The material master record for the component may have incorrect settings regarding the unit of measure and its decimal places.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Unit of Measure Settings:
  
  Go to the transaction code CUNI (Unit of Measure Conversion) or MM02 (Change Material) to check the settings for the unit of measure associated with the component.
  Verify the number of decimal places allowed for the unit of measure and ensure it matches the quantity being entered.
  
  
  
  Adjust Quantity:
  
  If the quantity entered exceeds the allowed decimal places, adjust the quantity to conform to the allowed format. For example, if the unit allows only two decimal places, ensure that the quantity is entered with no more than two decimal places.
  
  
  
  Review Material Master:
  
  Check the material master record for the component in question. Ensure that the unit of measure and its decimal places are correctly defined.
  Use transaction code MM03 to view the material master and check the relevant views (Basic Data, Purchasing, etc.).
  
  
  
  Consult with Configuration Team:
  
  If the unit of measure settings need to be changed, consult with your SAP configuration team to adjust the settings in the system.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary adjustments, test the transaction again to ensure that the error does not reoccur.
