• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message L2702 - For unit of measure & no conversion factor maintained ?

  The SAP error message L2702 indicates that there is an issue with the unit of measure (UoM) conversion in the system. Specifically, it means that a unit of measure has been used in a transaction or master data record, but there is no conversion factor maintained for that unit of measure in relation to the base unit of measure.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Conversion Factor: The primary cause of this error is that the conversion factor for the specified unit of measure is not defined in the system. This can happen if the unit of measure is newly created or if it has not been properly configured.
  Incorrect Master Data: The material master or other relevant master data may not have the necessary UoM settings.
  Transaction Data Issues: The transaction being processed may be using a unit of measure that is not compatible with the expected units in the system.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the L2702 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Unit of Measure Configuration:
  
  Go to the transaction code CUNI (Unit of Measure Conversion) in SAP.
  Verify if the unit of measure in question has a conversion factor defined. If not, you will need to create a conversion entry.
  
  
  
  Maintain Conversion Factors:
  
  If the conversion factor is missing, you can add it by specifying the base unit of measure and the corresponding unit of measure along with the conversion factor.
  Ensure that the conversion factor is accurate and reflects the correct relationship between the units.
  
  
  
  Review Material Master Data:
  
  Use transaction code MM03 to display the material master data.
  Check the "Basic Data" and "Purchasing" views to ensure that the unit of measure settings are correct and that the relevant UoMs are maintained.
  
  
  
  Check Transaction Data:
  
  If the error occurs during a specific transaction (e.g., goods movement, sales order), review the data being entered to ensure that the correct units of measure are being used.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  If you are unsure about the correct units of measure or conversion factors, refer to your organization's documentation or consult with a colleague who is knowledgeable about the specific materials and their UoM settings.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Unit of Measure (UoM): A unit of measure is a standard quantity used to express a physical quantity. In SAP, UoMs are crucial for inventory management, purchasing, and sales processes.
  Material Master: The material master is a central repository of information about materials in SAP. It contains data related to purchasing, inventory, sales, and more.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as MM01 (Create Material), MM02 (Change Material), and MM03 (Display Material) for managing material master data.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the L2702 error and ensure that the unit of measure conversions are correctly maintained in your SAP system.
