• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/GTS_CHECK012 - GTS check: ISO code unit of measure not found ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/GTS_CHECK012 GTS check: ISO code unit of measure not found typically occurs in the context of SAP Global Trade Services (GTS) when the system is unable to find a valid ISO code for a unit of measure (UoM) that is being used in a transaction. This can happen during processes such as goods movements, shipments, or when creating documents that require compliance checks.
  Cause:
  
  Missing ISO Code: The unit of measure being used in the transaction does not have a corresponding ISO code defined in the system.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration for units of measure in the system may not be set up correctly, leading to missing or incorrect mappings.

  Update Material Master:
  
  If the unit of measure is associated with a specific material, check the material master data (transaction code MM03) to ensure that the UoM is correctly assigned and that it has the necessary ISO code.
