  The SAP error message V1807, "Please enter factors for quantity conversion," typically occurs in the context of sales and distribution (SD) when there is an issue with the quantity conversion factors in the system. This error can arise during various processes, such as creating sales orders, quotations, or delivery documents, where different units of measure (UoM) are involved.
  Cause:
  The error is usually caused by one of the following reasons:
  
  
  Missing Conversion Factors: The system requires conversion factors between different units of measure (e.g., from pieces to kilograms) but these factors have not been defined in the material master or the relevant configuration settings.
  
  
  Incorrect Unit of Measure: The unit of measure used in the transaction may not be compatible with the defined units in the material master.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be issues in the configuration of the material master or the sales document type that prevent the system from finding the necessary conversion factors.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the V1807 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Material Master:

  Maintain Conversion Factors:
  
  If conversion factors are missing, you can maintain them by using transaction code MM02 to edit the material master.
  Navigate to the "Units of Measure" view and enter the required conversion factors.
  
  
  
  Review Sales Document Configuration:
  
  Check the configuration settings for the sales document type being used. Ensure that the relevant settings for unit of measure and quantity conversion are correctly configured in the sales area.
  
  
  
  Check for User Exits or BAdIs:
