• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MILL_OC114 - Combined order: only base, production, and operation UoM permitted ?

  The SAP error message MILL_OC114 indicates that there is an issue with the unit of measure (UoM) configuration for a combined order in the context of production planning and execution. This error typically arises when the system detects that the UoM used in the combined order does not conform to the allowed UoMs for base, production, or operation.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect UoM Configuration: The UoM used in the combined order may not be set up correctly in the system. SAP has specific requirements for UoMs in combined orders, and only certain UoMs are permitted.
  Mismatch in UoM: The UoM for the components of the combined order may not match the UoM defined for the base product, production, or operation.
  Master Data Issues: There may be inconsistencies in the master data for materials, such as the material master or the BOM (Bill of Materials), where the UoM is defined.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check UoM Configuration:
  
  Go to the material master record (transaction code MM03) and verify the UoM settings for the materials involved in the combined order.
  Ensure that the UoM for the base product, production, and operation is correctly defined and matches the expected values.
  
  
  
  Review Combined Order Settings:
  
  Check the settings for the combined order in the production order or process order. Ensure that the UoM used is one of the permitted types (base, production, or operation).
  
  
  
  Adjust Master Data:
  
  If there are discrepancies in the master data, update the material master or BOM to ensure that the UoM is consistent across all relevant components.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or help resources related to combined orders and UoM settings to ensure compliance with best practices.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary adjustments, test the creation of the combined order again to ensure that the error is resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:

  User Roles and Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to make changes to master data and production orders.
