What causes this issue?

You entered wrong data in one of the following ways:
In a composition of a product or a packaging, you do not enter a bulk
respectively a real substance neither as a mass nor as a mass fraction.
In a composition of a bulk or basic material, you do not enter bulk
respectively a real substance as a mass fraction.

System Response

The system cannot process the weight calculations for the assigned bulks
correctly.

How to fix this error?

Change the unit of measure and the related value for the bulk
respectively the real substance in the composition.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EHPRC_CPM_CHECK019 - Enter bulk &1 as mass or mass fraction in composition &2 ?

  The SAP error message EHPRC_CPM_CHECK019 typically occurs in the context of handling chemical substances and their compositions in the SAP Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS) module. This error indicates that there is an issue with how the bulk value is entered for a specific composition.
  Cause:
  The error message "Enter bulk &1 as mass or mass fraction in composition &2" suggests that the system expects the bulk value (denoted as &1) to be entered either as a mass (e.g., grams, kilograms) or as a mass fraction (a percentage of the total mass) for the specified composition (denoted as &2). The error can arise due to:
  
  Incorrect Input Format: The bulk value may not be entered in the expected format (e.g., it might be in volume instead of mass).
  Missing Data: The required fields for mass or mass fraction may not be filled in.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the EHS module that are not set up correctly, leading to validation errors.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Input Values: Ensure that the bulk value is entered correctly as either a mass (e.g., kg) or a mass fraction (e.g., percentage). Verify that the units are appropriate for the context.
  
  
  Review Composition Data: Go to the composition data for the specified substance and check if all required fields are filled out correctly. Ensure that the mass or mass fraction fields are populated.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for guidance on how to enter bulk values correctly in the EHS module.
  
  
  Configuration Review: If the issue persists, consult with your SAP EHS administrator or technical team to review the configuration settings related to bulk and composition data. They may need to adjust settings or validate the configuration.
  
  
  Testing: After making corrections, test the entry again to ensure that the error does not reoccur.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP EHS Module: This module is designed to manage compliance with environmental, health, and safety regulations, including the handling of chemical substances.
  Mass vs. Mass Fraction: Understanding the difference between mass (absolute quantity) and mass fraction (proportion of a component in a mixture) is crucial for accurate data entry.
  SAP Notes and Support: If you continue to experience issues, consider searching for relevant SAP Notes or reaching out to SAP support for assistance.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the EHPRC_CPM_CHECK019 error and ensure that your bulk values are entered correctly in the SAP system.
