• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VHU01022 - Target quantity must be a multiple of the rounding quantity ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message VHU01022: "Target quantity must be a multiple of the rounding quantity":
  
  Error Message:
  VHU01022 - Target quantity must be a multiple of the rounding quantity
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs in SAP when you try to enter or process a target quantity in a production order, process order, or a related transaction, and the quantity you specify is not a multiple of the rounding quantity defined for the material or operation.
  
  Rounding quantity is a parameter that controls the smallest quantity increment allowed for production or procurement.
  The system enforces that the target quantity must be an integer multiple of this rounding quantity.
  If the entered quantity does not comply, the system throws this error.
  
  
  Where does this happen?
  
  Production orders (PP)
  Process orders (PP-PI)
  Planned orders
  Sales orders or delivery documents (in some cases)
  Material master settings related to rounding
  
  
  Typical Scenario:
  
  Material master has a rounding quantity defined in the MRP 1 or Work Scheduling view.
  For example, rounding quantity = 10 units.
  You try to create or change an order with a target quantity of 25 units.
  Since 25 is not a multiple of 10, the system issues the error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the rounding quantity:
  
  Go to the material master (transaction MM03).
  Navigate to the Work Scheduling or MRP 1 view.
  Look for the field Rounding value (field name: BESKZ or BESKZ in some versions).
  Note the rounding quantity.
  
  
  
  Adjust the target quantity:
  
  Change the target quantity in your order or transaction to be a multiple of the rounding quantity.
  For example, if rounding quantity = 10, enter 10, 20, 30, etc.
  
  
  
  Change the rounding quantity (if appropriate):
  
  If the rounding quantity is unnecessarily restrictive, and business allows, you can change it to a smaller value or 1.
  This is done in the material master.
  Be cautious: changing rounding quantity affects all processes using this material.
  
  
  
  Check order type or operation-specific rounding:
  
  Sometimes rounding is controlled at the order type or operation level.
  Check configuration in Production Order Types or Routing for rounding settings.
  
  
  
  Customizing settings:
  
  In some cases, rounding is controlled via configuration in SPRO under Production or MRP settings.
  Verify if any user-exits or BAdIs enforce rounding rules.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  Rounding quantity ensures production or procurement happens in feasible lot sizes.
  It helps avoid fractional or impractical quantities.
  This error helps maintain data consistency and production feasibility.
  If you frequently encounter this error, review your rounding strategy for materials.
