• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PLMI/SP_RPR_PP002 - Process param. &1: unit of measure &2 cannot be used with master data &3 ?

  The SAP error message /PLMI/SP_RPR_PP002 indicates that there is an issue with the unit of measure (UoM) being used in conjunction with a specific piece of master data. This error typically arises in the context of production planning or material management when the system detects an inconsistency between the unit of measure defined for a process parameter and the unit of measure associated with the master data (such as materials, resources, or production orders).
  Cause:
  
  Incompatible Units of Measure: The unit of measure specified in the process parameter is not compatible with the unit of measure defined in the master data. For example, if the master data is set to use "kg" but the process parameter is set to "g", this could trigger the error.
  Missing Configuration: The necessary configuration for the unit of measure might not be set up correctly in the system.
  Data Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the data, such as changes made to the master data that have not been reflected in the process parameters.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Units of Measure: Verify the unit of measure defined in the process parameter and compare it with the unit of measure in the relevant master data. Ensure they are compatible.
  Adjust Master Data: If necessary, adjust the master data to use the same unit of measure as the process parameter or vice versa.
  Review Configuration: Check the configuration settings in the SAP system to ensure that the units of measure are correctly defined and that there are no missing settings.
  Data Consistency Check: Perform a data consistency check to identify any discrepancies between the process parameters and the master data.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on the units of measure and their configurations.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may need to use transaction codes like MM02 (Change Material), C223 (Change Process Parameter), or C201 (Create Production Order) to review and modify the relevant data.
  Unit of Measure Configuration: The configuration for units of measure can be found in the SAP IMG under Logistics - General > Basic Data > Units of Measure.
