How To Fix UGMD138 - Key figure &1 (type &2) has no unit field

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: UGMD - FIN Master Data: Messages

• Message number: 138

• Message text: Key figure &1 (type &2) has no unit field

What causes this issue?

Key figure &V1& has the type &V2&. A unit of measure or currency field
needs to be assigned to this data type. For technical reasons (for
example, generation of DDIC tables), an assignment of a fixed unit of
measure or a fixed currency (such as in SAP BW) is not possible.

System Response

You cannot use key figure &V1& in this manner.

How to fix this error?

You have two options:
Adjust the definition of key figure &V1& so that a suitable unit of
measure or currency field is assigned.
Make sure that key figure &V1& is no longer registered in your data
basis - for example, either by explicitly unregistering the key figure
or by deleting the use of this key figure (for example, as an attribute
of an explicitly-registered characteristic).
