  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message O4124 - System error in formula evaluation. No defining UOM for quotation & & & ?

    The SAP error message O4124, which states "System error in formula evaluation. No defining UOM for quotation & & &," typically occurs in the context of pricing or condition records in SAP, particularly when dealing with quotations or sales documents. This error indicates that the system is unable to evaluate a formula due to the absence of a defining Unit of Measure (UOM) for the quotation.

    Causes:

    1. Missing UOM Definition: The most common cause is that the unit of measure (UOM) required for the pricing condition is not defined in the system.
    2. Incorrect Configuration: There may be issues with the configuration of the pricing procedure or condition types that are not set up correctly.
    3. Data Inconsistencies: There could be inconsistencies in the master data, such as material master or customer master records, where the UOM is not properly maintained.
    4. Formula Errors: If there are custom formulas or calculations defined in the pricing procedure, they may not be correctly referencing the UOM.

    Solutions:

    1. Check UOM Configuration:

      • Go to the transaction code CUNI to check the unit of measure settings.
      • Ensure that the UOM used in the quotation is defined and active.
    2. Review Pricing Procedure:

      • Use transaction code V/08 to review the pricing procedure and ensure that the condition types are correctly configured.
      • Check if the condition types require a UOM and if they are set up to handle the UOM correctly.
    3. Validate Master Data:

      • Check the material master (transaction code MM03) and customer master (transaction code XD03) to ensure that the UOM is correctly maintained.
      • Ensure that the UOM used in the quotation matches the UOM defined in the material or customer master.
    4. Debugging:

      • If the issue persists, consider debugging the pricing procedure to identify where the formula evaluation is failing.
      • Use transaction code SE80 or SE37 to analyze any custom function modules or user exits that may be involved in the pricing logic.
    5. Consult SAP Notes:

      • Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error message or provide additional guidance.
