• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KG354 - No alternative unit of measure specified ?

  The SAP error message KG354 "No alternative unit of measure specified" typically occurs in the context of material management or production planning when the system expects an alternative unit of measure (UoM) to be defined for a material but cannot find one. This can happen in various scenarios, such as during the creation of a production order, when trying to perform a goods movement, or when working with inventory management.
  
  Cause:
  
  Missing Alternative UoM: The primary cause of this error is that the material master record does not have an alternative unit of measure defined. In SAP, materials can be managed in different units of measure (e.g., base unit, alternative unit), and if the alternative unit is not specified, the system cannot proceed with the transaction.
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the material master settings or in the relevant transaction settings that prevent the alternative UoM from being recognized.
