How To Fix CO675 - Invalid unit of measure for component & (see long text)

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: CO - PPC order processing messages

• Message number: 675

• Message text: Invalid unit of measure for component & (see long text)

What causes this issue?

The component &V1& plant &V2& cannot be copied with the unit of
measure &V3& entered since these cannot be converted to the base unit
of measure &V4&. If the unit of measure entered corresponds neither to
the base unit of measure nor to the unit of issue then the system
calculates a conversion ratio between the unit of measure of the
component and its base unit of measure. If this ratio is too large then
the component is copied with the base unit of measure.

System Response

The component is copied with the base unit of measure (or if possible
with the unit of issue).
