EEWMHIK039 - Details

• The SAP error message EEWMHIK039 indicates that there is a conflict in the input of inspection periods for a material or a process. Specifically, it occurs when you have entered one inspection period in months and another in years, which is not allowed.
  
  Cause:
  The error arises when the system detects that the inspection period for a material is defined in two different units (months and years). This inconsistency can lead to confusion in the system regarding how to interpret the inspection period, which is critical for quality management processes.
