• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message Q0211 - Set the indicator "Measured values" ?

  The SAP error message Q0211, which states "Set the indicator 'Measured values'," typically occurs in the context of Quality Management (QM) when working with inspection lots or quality notifications. This error indicates that the system expects a certain configuration or setting to be enabled for measured values in the quality management process.
  Cause:
  The error is usually caused by one of the following reasons:
  
  Configuration Issue: The indicator for measured values is not set in the relevant configuration settings for the inspection plan or the material master.
  Missing Settings: The inspection characteristics may not be properly defined to allow for measured values.
  User Role/Authorization: The user may not have the necessary permissions to set or modify the measured values.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the Q0211 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Inspection Plan:
  
  Go to the inspection plan associated with the inspection lot.
