EIP085 - Details

• The SAP error message EIP085 indicates that a weight value has been set to zero because it was at risk of causing a field overflow. This typically occurs in scenarios where the weight of a product or material exceeds the maximum limit that can be stored in the designated field within the SAP system.
  
  Cause:
  
  Field Overflow: The weight value being processed exceeds the maximum allowable limit for the data type defined in the database. For example, if the weight is stored in a field that can only hold a certain range of values (e.g., an integer), and the actual weight exceeds that range, the system will set the value to zero to prevent overflow.
  Data Entry Errors: Incorrect data entry or configuration settings may lead to unrealistic weight values being inputted into the system.
  Material Master Data Issues: The material master data may not be correctly configured, leading to discrepancies in weight values.
