• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RDM_OPT_OUTBOUND006 - None of selected materials has a default unit of measure => No sending ?

  The SAP error message RDM_OPT_OUTBOUND006 indicates that none of the selected materials have a default unit of measure (UoM) defined, which prevents the system from processing the outbound delivery or sending the materials. This error typically occurs in the context of outbound logistics processes, such as when trying to create an outbound delivery or send data to an external system.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Default Unit of Measure: The primary cause of this error is that the materials selected for the outbound process do not have a default unit of measure assigned in the material master data.
  Material Master Data Issues: The material master records may be incomplete or incorrectly configured, leading to the absence of a default UoM.
  Data Transfer Issues: If the materials are being transferred from another system or interface, there may be issues with the data mapping or transfer process.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Go to the material master record for the affected materials using transaction code MM03.
  Verify that a default unit of measure is assigned in the relevant views (e.g., Basic Data, Sales, Purchasing).
  If the default UoM is missing, you can add it by using transaction code MM02 to edit the material master.
  
  
  
  Assign a Default Unit of Measure:
  
  In the material master, navigate to the "Basic Data" view.
  Ensure that the "Base Unit of Measure" field is filled with a valid unit of measure (e.g., EA for each, KG for kilograms).
  Save the changes.
  
  
  
  Check for Batch Management:
  
  If the materials are batch-managed, ensure that the batch management settings are correctly configured and that the batches have a valid UoM.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration Settings:
  
  Check the configuration settings in the SAP system related to units of measure. Ensure that the UoM settings are correctly defined in the system.
  
  
  
  Test the Outbound Process:
  
  After making the necessary changes, attempt to process the outbound delivery again to see if the error persists.

  Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for more detailed information on material master data and unit of measure settings.
