  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WG063 - Quantity rounded off: material &, qty requested was: & & ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation of the SAP error message WG063:


    SAP Error Message: WG063

    Text:
    Quantity rounded off: material &, qty requested was: & &


    Cause

    This message occurs when the quantity entered for a material in a transaction (such as a goods movement, delivery, or production order) is automatically rounded off by the system. The rounding happens because the quantity requested does not conform to the material's defined unit of measure (UoM) or minimum/maximum order quantities, or due to the decimal places allowed for the material quantity.

    Common reasons include:

    • The quantity entered has more decimal places than allowed for the material.
    • The quantity is not a multiple of the material's base unit of measure or order unit.
    • The material master settings specify rounding rules (e.g., rounding to the nearest whole number or to a specific decimal precision).
    • The material is managed in a unit of measure that requires quantities to be in fixed multiples (e.g., packaging units).

    Explanation

    • Material &: The material number for which the quantity was entered.
    • Qty requested was: & &: The original quantity entered by the user.
    • The system rounds this quantity to a value that complies with the material master settings.

    Solution

    1. Check Material Master Data:

      • Go to transaction MM03 and check the material master.
      • Review the Units of Measure tab:
        • Check the Base Unit of Measure.
        • Check the Order Unit and any conversion factors.
        • Check the Decimal Places Allowed for the unit of measure.
      • Check the Sales: Sales Org. Data 1 or Purchasing views for minimum order quantities or rounding profiles.
    2. Adjust Quantity Entry:

      • Enter a quantity that complies with the allowed decimal places.
      • Enter a quantity that is a multiple of the rounding unit or minimum order quantity.
      • Avoid entering quantities with more decimal places than allowed.
    3. Adjust Material Master Settings (if appropriate):

      • If business requirements allow, change the decimal places allowed for the unit of measure.
      • Adjust rounding profiles or minimum order quantities.
      • Note: Changes to material master data should be done carefully and usually require authorization.
    4. Check Transaction-Specific Settings:

      • Some transactions or processes may have additional rounding or quantity checks.
      • Verify if any user exits, BAdIs, or custom code enforce quantity rounding.

    Additional Information

    • This message is informational and does not necessarily stop the transaction. It informs the user that the quantity was rounded.
    • If the rounding causes issues in logistics or accounting, review the material master settings carefully.
    • Rounding is important to ensure consistency in inventory management, billing, and production.
