  Configuration Issues: Incorrect configuration of units of measure or conversion factors in the system can also lead to this error.
  
  
  Data Integrity Issues: If there are inconsistencies or errors in the master data (e.g., material master, customer master), it can lead to incorrect calculations.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Input Values: Review the quantities being processed to ensure they are within acceptable limits. If necessary, break down large quantities into smaller units.
  
  
  Review Unit of Measure Configuration: 
  
  Check the configuration of units of measure in the system. Ensure that the conversion factors are correctly defined and that they do not lead to excessive values.
  Verify that the base units of measure are correctly set up in the material master or relevant master data.
  
  
  
  Data Validation: 
  
  Validate the data being processed to ensure there are no anomalies or incorrect entries.
  Check for any recent changes in master data that might have introduced inconsistencies.
