  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WJ214 - Unit of measure & not maintained for material & ?
    SAP Error Message:
    WJ214 - Unit of measure & not maintained for material &
    
    
    Cause: This warning message occurs when you try to perform a transaction (such as creating or changing a document) involving a material, and the unit of measure (UoM) you are using is not maintained or defined for that material in the system. In SAP, each material has a base unit of measure and can have additional units of measure defined (alternative UoMs). If you use a UoM that is not assigned or maintained for the material master, SAP issues this warning. Explanation: The system checks if the unit of measure entered in the transaction is valid for the material. If the UoM is not maintained in the material master (in the Units of Measure view), the system cannot process the transaction correctly. This can happen in various modules like MM (Material Management), SD (Sales and Distribution), WM (Warehouse Management), etc.
    Solution: Check the Material Master: Go to
