    The SAP error message FRMLDLG372 indicates that the material specified (denoted by &1) does not have a valid unit of measure (UoM) for the context in which it is being used. This typically occurs in scenarios where a material is being processed in a transaction that requires a specific unit of measure, but the material's configuration does not meet that requirement.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Unit of Measure: The material may not have any units of measure defined in its master data.
    2. Incorrect Unit of Measure: The material may have units of measure defined, but they are not compatible with the view or transaction you are trying to access.

    4. View-Specific Requirements: Certain views in the material master may require specific units of measure that are not defined for the material.

    Solution:

    1. Check Material Master Data:

      • Go to the material master record (transaction code MM03).
      • Check the "Basic Data" view and the "Sales Org. Data" view (if applicable) to ensure that the unit of measure is defined.
      • Ensure that the base unit of measure is correctly set.
    2. Define Units of Measure:

      • If the unit of measure is missing, you can add it by using transaction code MM02 to modify the material master.
      • Navigate to the relevant views and add the required units of measure.
    3. Review Unit of Measure Settings:

      • Check the unit of measure conversion settings to ensure that the material has valid conversions defined if multiple units of measure are used.
    4. Consult Documentation:

      • Review SAP documentation or help files for specific requirements related to the view you are trying to access.
    5. Check for User Exits or Enhancements:

      • If there are custom developments or enhancements in your SAP system, check if they might be affecting the unit of measure validation.
    6. Contact SAP Support:

      • If the issue persists after checking the above points, consider reaching out to SAP support for further assistance.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: MM01 (Create Material), MM02 (Change Material), MM03 (Display Material).
    • Unit of Measure Configuration: You can configure units of measure in the SAP system through the customizing transaction (SPRO) under Logistics > Material Master > Basic Settings > Define Units of Measure.
