• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FRE135 - Order Quantity rounded down ?

  The SAP error message FRE135, which states "Order Quantity rounded down," typically occurs in the context of order processing in SAP, particularly when dealing with materials that have specific unit of measure (UoM) settings. This message indicates that the system has rounded down the order quantity to comply with the defined UoM or other constraints.
  Cause:
  
  
  Unit of Measure (UoM) Settings: The order quantity may not be compatible with the defined UoM for the material. For example, if the UoM is set to a specific increment (e.g., multiples of 10), and the user tries to order a quantity that is not a multiple of that increment, the system will round it down to the nearest valid quantity.
  
  
  Minimum Order Quantity: If there is a minimum order quantity defined for the material, and the entered quantity is below this threshold, the system may round down to the nearest acceptable quantity.
  
  
  Batch Management: If the material is batch-managed, the system may require that the order quantity aligns with batch sizes, leading to rounding.
  
  
  Configuration Settings: Certain configuration settings in the material master or in the sales order processing can lead to this behavior.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check UoM Settings: Review the unit of measure settings for the material in the material master (transaction code MM03). Ensure that the UoM is appropriate for the quantities being ordered.
  
  
  Adjust Order Quantity: If the order quantity is being rounded down, consider adjusting the quantity to a value that meets the UoM requirements or the minimum order quantity.
  
  
  Review Minimum Order Quantity: Check if there is a minimum order quantity set for the material. If necessary, adjust the order quantity to meet this requirement.
  
  
  Consult with Configuration Team: If the issue persists, consult with your SAP configuration team to review the settings related to the material and order processing. They may need to adjust the configuration to prevent unwanted rounding.
  
  
  User Training: Ensure that users are trained on the correct entry of order quantities, especially in relation to UoM and minimum order quantities.
