  • What causes this issue?

    You selected a spare part with unit of measure &V1& and copied it to the
    list. The system could not verify this unit of measure as a valid entry.

    System Response

    If a material master record is assigned to the selected spare part
    <(>,<)> the system copies the material to the list and replaces the unit
    of measure &V1& with the base unit of measure of the material.
    If the spare part is not assigned to a material master record and you
    have not selected this spare part before, the system adds the spare part
    to the list and replaces the unit of measure &V1& with ISO code <LS>PCE
    </>.
    If the spare part is not assigned to a material master record and the
    same spare part is already in the list, the system adds up the
    quantities and replaces the unit of measure &V1& with the unit of
    measure of the spare part in the list.

    Check the quantities and unit of measure of the materials of the

  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EAMVE022 - Unit of measure &1 is not valid ?

    The SAP error message EAMVE022, which states "Unit of measure &1 is not valid," typically occurs in the context of Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) or Materials Management (MM) when the system encounters a unit of measure (UoM) that is not recognized or is not set up correctly in the system.

    Cause:

    1. Invalid Unit of Measure: The unit of measure specified in the transaction does not exist in the system or is not valid for the material or service being processed.
    2. Configuration Issues: The unit of measure may not be properly configured in the material master or the relevant settings in the SAP system.
    3. Missing UoM in Master Data: The unit of measure may not be assigned to the material in the material master data.
    4. Incorrect UoM Conversion: If there are conversions defined between different units of measure, an error may occur if the conversion is not set up correctly.

    Solution:

    1. Check the Unit of Measure: Verify that the unit of measure you are trying to use is valid. You can do this by checking the unit of measure table (T006) in SAP.
    2. Material Master Data: Go to the material master record (transaction code MM03) and check if the unit of measure is correctly assigned to the material. Ensure that the UoM is listed under the relevant views (e.g., Basic Data, Purchasing, Sales).
    3. Configuration Settings: If you have access, check the configuration settings for units of measure in the SAP system. This can be done through transaction SPRO:
      • Navigate to Logistics > General > Material Master > Settings for Key Fields > Define Units of Measure.
    4. Create or Update UoM: If the unit of measure does not exist, you may need to create it using transaction code CUNI (Maintain Units of Measure).
    5. Check UoM Conversion: If applicable, check the conversion factors between different units of measure to ensure they are set up correctly.
