    4. Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on configuring units of measure in SAP TM.
    5. Check Customizations: If there are any custom developments or enhancements in your SAP system, ensure that they are not interfering with the standard processing of units of measure.

    Related Information:
