• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TPM_TRCO_CTY135 - Unit entered is a batch-specific unit of measure ?

  The SAP error message TPM_TRCO_CTY135 indicates that a unit of measure (UoM) entered in a transaction is batch-specific, which means that it is tied to a specific batch of material. This error typically occurs in the context of transactions involving batch management, such as in the SAP modules for materials management (MM) or production planning (PP).
  Cause:
  The error arises when:
  
  A batch-specific unit of measure is used in a transaction where a non-batch-specific unit is expected.
  The system is trying to process a transaction that does not align with the batch management settings for the material in question.
  The unit of measure conversion is not properly defined for the batch-specific unit.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Unit of Measure:
  
  Verify that the unit of measure you are trying to use is appropriate for the transaction. If the transaction requires a non-batch-specific unit, switch to that unit.
  
  
  
  Review Batch Management Settings:
  
  Ensure that the material is correctly set up for batch management. Check the material master data to confirm that the batch management settings are correctly configured.
  
  
  
  Adjust Transaction Data:
  
  If you are entering data manually, ensure that you are using the correct unit of measure that corresponds to the batch. If necessary, change the unit of measure to one that is not batch-specific.
  
  
  
  Unit of Measure Conversion:
  
  If you need to use a batch-specific unit, ensure that the conversion factors between the batch-specific unit and the base unit of measure are correctly defined in the material master.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on handling batch-specific units of measure in your version of SAP.
