• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/L3207 - Operative UoM &1 is different to AUoM &2 of selected stock ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/L3207 indicates that there is a mismatch between the Operative Unit of Measure (UoM) and the Alternative Unit of Measure (AUoM) for the selected stock in the Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. This typically occurs when you are trying to perform an operation (like picking, transferring, or posting goods) that requires a specific unit of measure, but the stock you are working with is in a different unit of measure.
  Cause:
  
  Unit of Measure Mismatch: The stock you are trying to process is in a different unit of measure than what is expected for the operation you are performing.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the material master or warehouse settings that define how units of measure are handled.
  Stock Type: The stock type (e.g., unrestricted, blocked, etc.) may have different UoM settings that are not aligned with the operation being performed.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Master: Verify the material master data for the item in question. Ensure that the Operative UoM and AUoM are correctly defined and that they match the stock you are trying to process.
  
  Go to transaction MM03 to view the material master and check the units of measure.
  
  
  
  Review Stock Information: Use transaction LX03 or /SCWM/LS03 to check the stock information and see what UoM is being used for the stock you are trying to work with.
  
  
  Adjust the Operation: If you are trying to perform an operation that requires a specific UoM, ensure that you are using the correct UoM for the operation. You may need to convert the stock to the required UoM.
  
  
  Configuration Settings: If the issue persists, review the configuration settings in the EWM system. Check the settings for unit of measure conversion and ensure that they are correctly set up.
  
  This can be done in the SPRO configuration under Logistics Execution -> Extended Warehouse Management -> Master Data -> Define Units of Measure.
