  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPSLL/CON_LDET008 - Invalid quantity check call: &1 unit of measure is not maintained ?

    The SAP error message /SAPSLL/CON_LDET008 Invalid quantity check call: &1 unit of measure is not maintained typically occurs in the context of logistics and supply chain management, particularly when dealing with unit of measure (UoM) conversions or validations in the SAP system. This error indicates that the system is unable to find a valid unit of measure for a specific quantity being processed.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Unit of Measure: The specified unit of measure (UoM) is not defined in the system. This could happen if the UoM is not maintained in the relevant master data (e.g., material master, vendor master).
    2. Incorrect Configuration: The configuration settings for units of measure in the system may not be set up correctly, leading to the inability to recognize the UoM.
    3. Data Entry Error: There may be a typo or incorrect entry in the transaction where the UoM is specified.
    4. Inconsistent Data: The UoM might be defined in one area of the system but not in another, leading to inconsistencies.

    Solution:

    1. Check UoM Maintenance:

      • Go to the material master (transaction code MM03) and check if the UoM is maintained for the relevant material.
      • Ensure that the UoM is defined in the "Basic Data" view and any other relevant views.
    2. Maintain UoM in Customizing:

      • If the UoM is missing, you can add it through the customizing settings. Use transaction code SPRO to navigate to:
        • Logistics Execution > Shipping > Basic Shipping Functions > Unit of Measure > Define Units of Measure.
      • Ensure that the UoM is correctly defined and linked to the appropriate conversion factors if necessary.
    3. Check for Data Entry Errors:

      • Review the transaction where the error occurred to ensure that the UoM was entered correctly. Look for any typos or incorrect values.
    4. Review Configuration Settings:

      • Check the configuration settings related to units of measure in the system to ensure they are set up correctly.
    5. Consult Documentation:

      • Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for additional guidance on unit of measure maintenance and configuration.

    Related Information:

    • Unit of Measure Types: Understand the different types of units of measure (e.g., base unit, alternative unit) and how they are used in SAP.
    • Material Master Data: Familiarize yourself with the material master data structure and how UoMs are maintained within it.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address known issues or provide additional guidance on this error message.

    If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or a functional consultant who specializes in logistics and supply chain management within SAP.
