This can happen in various contexts, such as during the creation of documents, transactions, or when processing data related to materials, inventory, or sales.
  Cause:
  
  Undefined Unit of Measure: The unit of measure specified in the transaction or document does not exist in the SAP system.

  Solution:
  
  
  Check UoM Definition:
  
  Go to the transaction code CUNI (Unit of Measure Conversion) to check if the unit of measure exists in the system.
  If it does not exist, you can create it by using the same transaction.

  Correct Data Entry:
  
  Review the input data for any typographical errors in the unit of measure. Ensure that the correct UoM is being used.
  
  
  
  Check Custom Developments:
