SCM_MD_R3_PI024 - Details

• The SAP error message SCM_MD_R3_PI024, which states "You can only define one parallel unit of measure," typically occurs in the context of SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) or SAP Supply Chain Management (SCM) when there is an issue with the configuration of units of measure for a material.
  
  Cause:
  This error arises when you attempt to define multiple parallel units of measure for a material in a way that is not allowed by the system. In SAP, a parallel unit of measure is an additional unit of measure that can be used alongside the base unit of measure for a material. However, the system restricts the definition to only one parallel unit of measure to avoid confusion and ensure consistency in inventory management and planning.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to check the configuration of the material in question and ensure that only one parallel unit of measure is defined. Here
