• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message W6006 - No conversion factor maintained for material &, unit of measure & ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  W6006 No conversion factor maintained for material & , unit of measure &
  
  
  Cause:
  This warning message occurs when the system tries to perform a unit of measure (UoM) conversion for a material, but no conversion factor is maintained between the base unit of measure and the requested unit of measure for that material.
  
  Each material in SAP has a base unit of measure (e.g., EA - Each).
  Sometimes, you need to convert quantities from one unit of measure to another (e.g., from EA to KG).
  For this conversion, SAP requires a conversion factor to be maintained in the material master.
  If the system cannot find this conversion factor, it issues the warning W6006.
  
  
  When does it occur?
  
  During goods movements (goods receipt, goods issue, transfer postings).
  During sales order processing or delivery creation.
  When the system tries to convert quantities between different units of measure for a material.
