- Please enter a unit of measure ?SAP Error Message:
W+614 Please enter a unit of measure
Cause:
This warning message appears when a required Unit of Measure (UoM) field is left empty during data entry in SAP. The system expects a unit of measure to be specified for quantities in various transactions such as material master data, purchase orders, sales orders, goods movements, or production orders. Without a UoM, the system cannot process quantity-related information correctly.
When does it typically occur?
Enter the Unit of Measure:
Make sure to input a valid unit of measure in the relevant field. The UoM must be defined in the system (transaction CUNI for unit of measure maintenance).
Check Material Master Data:
Verify that the material master has a base unit of measure defined (MM01/MM02). If missing, define it.
Validate Transaction Data:
Ensure that all quantity fields in the transaction have an associated unit of measure.
User Input Checks:
If this message appears during a custom transaction or report, check the input screen or program logic to ensure the UoM field is not left blank.
Configuration Check:
If the system unexpectedly requires a UoM, check if any custom validations or user-exits are enforcing this.
