  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EN236 - You cannot specify measured pressure or pressure regulator ?

    The SAP error message EN236, which states "You cannot specify measured pressure or pressure regulator," typically occurs in the context of working with equipment or functional locations in SAP Plant Maintenance (PM) or SAP Materials Management (MM) modules. This error is related to the configuration of measuring points or measuring documents where certain parameters are not compatible with the system's expectations.

    Cause:

    1. Incompatible Settings: The error usually arises when there is an attempt to enter a measured pressure or pressure regulator in a context where it is not allowed. This could be due to:

      • The equipment or functional location not being configured to handle pressure measurements.
      • The measurement type being incorrectly set up in the system.
      • The system expecting a different type of measurement (e.g., flow instead of pressure).
    2. Missing Configuration: The relevant configuration for pressure measurement might not be set up in the system, such as the measurement point not being defined correctly.

    3. Data Entry Error: There might be a mistake in the data entry process, such as trying to enter a value in a field that is not applicable.

    Solution:

    1. Check Configuration:

      • Verify the configuration of the measuring point or measuring document. Ensure that the equipment or functional location is set up to handle pressure measurements.
      • Check the measurement type settings in the system to ensure they are correctly defined for pressure.
    2. Review Measurement Points:

      • Go to the relevant transaction (e.g., IL01 for creating measuring points) and check if the measuring point is correctly defined for pressure measurements.
      • Ensure that the measurement point is linked to the correct equipment or functional location.
    3. Correct Data Entry:

      • Double-check the data you are entering. Make sure you are not trying to enter a pressure measurement in a field that does not accept it.
      • If you are using a pressure regulator, ensure that it is correctly configured in the system.
    4. Consult Documentation:

      • Review SAP documentation or help files related to measuring points and measurement types to ensure compliance with system requirements.
    5. Seek Help from SAP Support:

      • If the issue persists after checking the above points, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to this error.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any specific fixes or updates related to error EN236.
    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as IL01 (Create Measuring Point), IL02 (Change Measuring Point), and IL03 (Display Measuring Point) for managing measuring points.
    • Training and Documentation: Consider training sessions or documentation on SAP PM or MM modules to better understand how to manage measurements and configurations.

    By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the EN236 error and implement a solution to resolve it.
