This error typically arises when you are trying to process a transaction related to a commodity, but the system cannot find the necessary unit of measure information.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Unit of Measure: The commodity in question has not been assigned a unit of measure in the system.
  Configuration Issues: The commodity master data may not be properly configured, leading to missing or incorrect UoM settings.

  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Commodity Master Data:
  
  Navigate to the commodity master data in SAP.
  Ensure that the unit of measure is specified for the commodity in question. You can do this by going to the relevant transaction (e.g., transaction code CT04 for creating or changing material master data).
  If the UoM is missing, add the appropriate unit of measure.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration Settings:
  
  Check the configuration settings for commodities in the SAP system. This can typically be done through the customizing transaction (SPRO).
  Ensure that the unit of measure settings are correctly defined for the commodities you are working with.
  
  
  
  Data Entry Validation:
  
  If you are entering data manually, double-check that you have filled in all required fields, including the unit of measure.

  Testing:
