• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message IVE_E_INVOICE083 - Diverse unit of measures for enhanced limit item not allowed in one SES ?

  The SAP error message IVE_E_INVOICE083 indicates that there are diverse units of measure for enhanced limit items in a single Service Entry Sheet (SES), which is not allowed. This error typically arises in the context of invoice verification and service procurement processes in SAP.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when you attempt to create or process a Service Entry Sheet that includes multiple items with different units of measure for enhanced limit items. Enhanced limit items are typically used in service procurement scenarios where services are billed based on predefined limits. The system expects all items in a single SES to have the same unit of measure to ensure consistency and proper processing.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Service Entry Sheet: Review the SES you are trying to process. Ensure that all items listed have the same unit of measure. If there are items with different units of measure, you will need to separate them into different SES documents.
  
  
  Adjust the Units of Measure: If possible, adjust the units of measure for the items so that they are consistent. This may involve changing the unit of measure in the material master or service master data.
  
  
  Create Separate SES: If the items cannot be adjusted to have the same unit of measure, create separate Service Entry Sheets for each group of items that share the same unit of measure.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's guidelines on service procurement and invoice verification to ensure compliance with the required processes.
  
  
  Contact Support: If you are unable to resolve the issue, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting with an SAP expert for further assistance.
