  SAP Error Message:
  
  WPM_PROMO_2007 - Invalid unit of measure
  
  Cause:
  This error typically occurs when a unit of measure (UoM) used in a promotion, pricing condition, or material master data is not valid or not recognized by the system in the given context. Common causes include:
  
  The unit of measure entered does not exist in the system.
  The unit of measure is not assigned or allowed for the material or condition record.
  There is a mismatch between the unit of measure in the promotion or pricing condition and the unit of measure defined in the material master.
  The unit of measure is not maintained in the relevant customizing settings (e.g., in Sales and Distribution or Materials Management).
  The unit of measure is not compatible with the promotion or pricing logic (e.g., trying to apply a promotion on a unit that is not valid for the product).
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check the Unit of Measure:
  
  Verify the unit of measure entered in the promotion or pricing condition.
  Ensure it exists in the system (transaction CUNI - Units of Measure).
  
  
  
  Verify Material Master Data:
  
  Check the material master (transaction MM03) for the base unit of measure and any alternative units of measure.
  Confirm that the unit of measure used in the promotion is valid for the material.
  
  
  
  Check Condition Records:
  
  Review the condition records related to the promotion (transaction VK11/VK12/VK13).
  Ensure the unit of measure in the condition record matches the allowed units.
  
  
  
  Review Customizing Settings:
  
  Check the configuration for units of measure in Sales and Distribution (SPRO path: Sales and Distribution ? Basic Functions ? Units of Measure).
  Confirm that the unit of measure is allowed for sales documents and pricing.
  
  
  
  Adjust the Promotion or Pricing Logic:
  
  If the promotion logic restricts certain units of measure, adjust it to include the required unit or change the unit in the promotion.
  
  
  
  Data Consistency:
  
  Run consistency checks or data validation to ensure no mismatches exist between units of measure in related master data and condition records.
