• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MIGO073 - The full product &1 is not tied to an empty for unit of measure &2 ?

  The SAP error message MIGO073 indicates that there is an issue with the unit of measure (UoM) during a goods movement transaction in the MIGO (Goods Movement) transaction. Specifically, the error states that the full product (material) is not tied to an empty unit of measure.
  Cause:
  This error typically occurs due to one of the following reasons:
  
  
  Unit of Measure Configuration: The material may not have been properly configured with the necessary units of measure in the material master. This can happen if the base unit of measure is not defined or if the conversion factors between different units of measure are missing.
  
  
  Incorrect UoM in the Transaction: The unit of measure being used in the MIGO transaction may not be valid for the material being processed. For example, if you are trying to post a goods movement using a unit of measure that is not defined for that material, this error will occur.
  
  
  Material Status: The material might be in a status that does not allow for certain transactions, such as being blocked or restricted.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the MIGO073 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Go to the material master (transaction code MM03) and check the unit of measure settings.
  Ensure that the base unit of measure is defined and that any alternative units of measure are correctly configured with appropriate conversion factors.
  
  
  
  Verify UoM in MIGO:
  
  In the MIGO transaction, ensure that you are using the correct unit of measure that is valid for the material. You can check the allowed units of measure in the material master.
  
  
  
  Review Material Status:
  
  Check if the material is blocked or has any restrictions that might prevent the goods movement. You can do this in the material master or by checking the material status in the relevant transaction.
  
  
  
  Consult with SAP Support:
  
  If the issue persists after checking the above points, consider reaching out to your SAP support team or consulting SAP documentation for further assistance.
