    1. Check Unit of Measurement: Verify the unit of measurement being used in the document. Ensure that it is a standard unit recognized by SAP.
    2. Assign ISO Code:
      • Go to the transaction code CUNI (Unit of Measure Conversion).
      • Check if the unit of measurement in question is listed. If it is not, you may need to create it or modify it to include the ISO code.
      • If the unit exists but lacks an ISO code, you can assign the appropriate ISO code to it.
    3. Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or the relevant configuration guides to ensure that you are following the correct procedures for defining units of measurement.
    4. Custom Development: If you are using a custom unit of measurement, consider creating a new entry in the system with the appropriate ISO code or consult with your SAP development team to ensure that the custom unit is properly configured.

    Related Information:

    • ISO Codes: Familiarize yourself with the ISO codes for units of measurement. You can find a list of these codes in various online resources or through ISO documentation.
