  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MILL102 - Material &1 batch &2: Qty in piece unit of measure &3 &4 not allowed ?

    The SAP error message MILL102 typically indicates an issue related to the handling of materials and their respective batch quantities in a specific unit of measure. This error often arises in the context of inventory management, production planning, or batch management within the SAP system.

    Cause:

    The error message MILL102 is triggered when there is an attempt to process a quantity of a material in a unit of measure that is not allowed for the specified batch. This can occur due to several reasons:

    1. Incorrect Unit of Measure (UoM): The quantity being processed is in a unit of measure that is not compatible with the batch's defined unit of measure.
    2. Batch Management Settings: The batch may have specific settings that restrict the use of certain units of measure.
    3. Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the material master data or batch management settings that lead to this error.
    4. Quantity Conversion Issues: If there are issues with the conversion factors between different units of measure, this error can occur.

    Solution:

    To resolve the MILL102 error, you can take the following steps:

    1. Check Material Master Data:

      • Go to the material master record and verify the units of measure defined for the material. Ensure that the piece unit of measure is allowed for the batch in question.
    2. Review Batch Management Settings:

      • Check the batch management settings for the material. Ensure that the batch is configured to allow the processing of quantities in the specified unit of measure.
    3. Adjust Quantity:

      • If you are trying to process a quantity in a unit of measure that is not allowed, consider converting the quantity to a compatible unit of measure before processing.
    4. Consult Configuration:

      • If you have access to the configuration settings, review the settings related to units of measure and batch management in the SAP system. Ensure that they are set up correctly.
    5. Check for Customizations:

      • If your organization has custom developments or enhancements in place, check if any of these could be affecting the handling of units of measure for batches.
    6. SAP Notes and Documentation:

      • Search for relevant SAP Notes or documentation that may provide additional insights or solutions specific to your version of SAP.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: You may need to use transaction codes like MM03 (Display Material), MM02 (Change Material), or MSC2N (Change Batch) to review and modify material and batch data.
    • Unit of Measure Configuration: Familiarize yourself with the configuration of units of measure in SAP, which can be found in the IMG (Implementation Guide) under Logistics General > Material Master > Basic Settings > Units of Measure.
    • Batch Management: Understanding batch management in SAP can help you better manage materials that require batch tracking.
