• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message LTRM035 - UOM &1 is not defined as a UOM of &2; choose a different value ?

  The SAP error message LTRM035 indicates that the unit of measure (UOM) you are trying to use is not defined for the specific material or object you are working with. This typically occurs in the context of logistics, inventory management, or material management when the system expects a certain UOM for a material but finds that the UOM you provided is not valid for that material.
  Cause:
  
  UOM Not Defined: The UOM you are trying to use is not defined in the material master for the specific material.
  Incorrect UOM Usage: The UOM you are trying to use may not be appropriate for the context (e.g., trying to use a UOM that is not allowed for a specific transaction type).
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the system that prevent the UOM from being recognized.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Master:
  
  Go to the material master record for the specific material (transaction code MM03).
  Check the UOM settings in the Basic Data, Purchasing, and Sales views to ensure that the UOM you are trying to use is listed.
  
  
  
  Define UOM:
  
  If the UOM is not defined, you can add it by going to the material master and updating the relevant views.
  You may need to define the UOM in the UOM settings (transaction code CUNI for unit of measure conversion).
  
  
  
  Use Valid UOM:
  
  If the UOM is not valid for the material, choose a different UOM that is defined for that material.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  If you have the necessary authorizations, check the configuration settings in the SAP system to ensure that the UOM is properly set up for the relevant materials and transactions.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
