• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/STOCK_CONS019 - Unit of measure &1 not allowed for material &2 ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/STOCK_CONS019 indicates that the unit of measure (UoM) specified for a material is not allowed in the context of the operation you are trying to perform. This error typically occurs in the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module when there is a mismatch between the unit of measure being used and the units defined for the material in the system.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect Unit of Measure: The unit of measure you are trying to use for the material is not defined in the material master data.
  Configuration Issues: The allowed units of measure for the material may not be properly configured in the system.
  Material Master Settings: The material master may not have the necessary UoM settings for the specific transaction or process you are attempting to execute.
  Conversion Factors: There may be issues with conversion factors if you are trying to convert between different units of measure.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Go to the material master record (transaction code MM03).
  Verify the units of measure defined for the material in the "Basic Data" and "Sales Org. Data" views.
  Ensure that the unit of measure you are trying to use is listed as an allowed unit.
  
  
  
  Update Allowed Units of Measure:
  
  If the required unit of measure is not present, you may need to add it to the material master.
  Use transaction code MM02 to update the material master and add the necessary unit of measure.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  Check the configuration settings in the EWM system to ensure that the unit of measure settings are correctly defined.
  You may need to consult with your SAP configuration team to ensure that the UoM settings align with your business processes.
  
  
  
  Check Conversion Factors:
  
  If you are using multiple units of measure, ensure that the conversion factors between them are correctly defined in the material master.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, test the transaction again to see if the error persists.
