  Causes
  
  
  Unit of Measure (UoM) Configuration: The conversion factor between the source and target UoM may not be defined in the system. This can happen if the UoM is not properly set up in the material master data.
  
  
  Material Master Data Issues: The material master may have incomplete or incorrect data, particularly in the UoM settings.
  
  
  Data Type Mismatch: There may be a mismatch in the expected data types during a conversion process, which could be due to incorrect data entry or configuration.
  
  
  Custom Code or Enhancements: If there are custom programs or enhancements that manipulate material data, they may not handle certain conversions correctly.
  
  
  Solutions
  
  
  Check UoM Configuration:
  
  Go to the transaction code CUNI (Unit of Measure Conversion) and verify that the conversion factors between the source and target UoMs are defined correctly.
  Ensure that the UoMs are correctly assigned to the material in the material master.
  
  
  
  Review Material Master Data:
  
  Use transaction code MM03 to display the material master data for the material in question. Check the UoM settings and ensure that all necessary fields are filled out correctly.
  If needed, update the material master data using MM02.
  
  
  
  Check for Custom Code:
