• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EHPRC_CPM_CHECK058 - Unit of measure of the netto weight is not equal to mass (&1) ?

  The SAP error message EHPRC_CPM_CHECK058 indicates that there is a discrepancy between the unit of measure (UoM) for the net weight and the mass in the system. This error typically arises in the context of product data management, particularly when dealing with material master records, batch management, or during the creation of product specifications.
  Cause:
  
  Unit of Measure Mismatch: The net weight of the product is defined in a different unit of measure than the mass. For example, if the net weight is recorded in kilograms but the mass is recorded in grams, this discrepancy will trigger the error.
  Configuration Issues: There may be issues in the configuration of the material master or the product specification that lead to inconsistent UoM settings.
  Data Entry Errors: Manual data entry errors can lead to incorrect UoM being assigned to either the net weight or the mass.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Go to the material master record (transaction code MM03) and verify the units of measure for the net weight and mass.
  Ensure that both are using the same unit of measure. If they are not, you may need to adjust one of them to match the other.
  
  
  
  Adjust Product Specifications:
  
  If the error occurs in the context of product specifications, check the specifications for the product and ensure that the units of measure for net weight and mass are consistent.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration Settings:
  
  If the issue persists, review the configuration settings in the SAP system related to units of measure. This may involve checking the UoM settings in the customizing (transaction SPRO) to ensure that they are correctly defined.
  
  
  
  Data Correction:
  
  If the error is due to incorrect data entry, correct the data in the relevant records. This may involve updating the material master or product specifications.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for additional guidance on handling unit of measure issues.
