• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message O9085 - Stock keeping UoM of component &1 <> &2 of main material &3 item: &4 ?

  The SAP error message O9085 indicates a mismatch between the stock-keeping unit of measure (UoM) for a component and the main material in a bill of materials (BOM) or production order. Specifically, it means that the unit of measure for the component does not match the unit of measure defined for the main material.
  Cause:
  
  Mismatch in UoM: The component's stock-keeping unit of measure is different from the main material's unit of measure. This can happen if the component is defined in a different UoM in the material master compared to the main material.
  Incorrect BOM Configuration: The BOM may have been configured incorrectly, leading to inconsistencies in the UoM for components.
  Data Entry Errors: Manual entry errors during the creation or modification of materials or BOMs can lead to this issue.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Go to the material master record for both the main material and the component.
  Verify the stock-keeping unit of measure for both materials. Ensure that they are consistent and correctly defined.
  
  
  
  Review BOM Configuration:
  
  Access the BOM for the main material and check the components listed.
  Ensure that the UoM for each component matches the UoM of the main material or is compatible with it.
  
  
  
  Adjust UoM:
  
  If there is a mismatch, you may need to adjust the UoM for either the component or the main material to ensure they are compatible.
  This may involve changing the UoM in the material master or updating the BOM.
  
  
  
  Recreate BOM:
  
  In some cases, it may be easier to recreate the BOM with the correct UoM settings rather than trying to modify existing entries.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on handling UoM issues in your version of SAP.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may use transaction codes like MM02 (Change Material), CS02 (Change BOM), or CS03 (Display BOM) to check and modify the relevant data.
  Unit of Measure Conversion: If you need to use different UoMs, consider setting up conversion factors in the material master to allow for proper handling of different units.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues or bugs related to UoM handling in your version of SAP.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the O9085 error and ensure that your materials and BOMs are correctly configured.
