SAP Error Message - Details

• Message number: 085

• Message text: Error during unit conversion of business volume for condition basis

What causes this issue?

Translation: Largely identical to NAA084
The business volume for the condition basis (see calculation rule) is
taken from the document conditions in unit &V1&. However, as the update
of business volume data is to be carried out in unit &V2&, conversion is
needed.
However, it is not possible to convert units &V1& and &V2&.

System Response

Business volume data is not updated, as the business volume for the
condition basis is missing.

How to fix this error?

Ensure that the system is able to determine the business volume in the
form given above.
For this, the gross/net weight, volumes, points, and the required units
of measure should be maintained in the material master, and/or suitable
unit of measure conversion should be defined in the material master
(alternative unit of measure) or info record (conversion of order unit
according to points).
The data can be copied from the material master and info record to the
document item and changed. The system attempted to use this data (item
data, info record, material master) to carry out the conversion, but
this attempt was unsuccessful.
If necessary, contact your system administrator.

If you have the necessary authorization, you can maintain the material
master directly.

  Causes:
  
  Incorrect Unit of Measure (UoM): The error may arise if the unit of measure defined in the condition record does not match the unit of measure used in the transaction or master data.
  Missing Conversion Factors: If the conversion factors between different units of measure are not defined in the system, SAP will not be able to convert the business volume correctly.
  Inconsistent Data: There may be inconsistencies in the master data, such as material master or customer master, where the units of measure are not aligned.
  Configuration Issues: There could be issues in the configuration of the pricing procedure or condition types that affect how units are handled.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Unit of Measure: Verify that the unit of measure in the condition record matches the unit of measure used in the transaction. Ensure that the UoM is correctly defined in the material master and customer master.

  Check Pricing Procedure: Review the pricing procedure configuration to ensure that it is set up correctly to handle the units of measure. This includes checking the condition types and their settings.
  Debugging: If the issue persists, consider debugging the pricing logic to identify where the conversion is failing. This may require assistance from a technical consultant.
