  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WSAM_SHMAE010 - No units found for material &1 ?

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


    SAP Error Message:

    WSAM_SHMAE010 No units found for material &1


    Meaning / Cause:

    This error occurs when the system tries to find the units of measure for a given material but cannot find any units assigned to that material in the system. Essentially, the material master record does not have any units of measure maintained, which are necessary for various processes like sales, procurement, inventory management, or production.


    Common Causes:

    • The material master record is incomplete or not fully maintained.
    • No base unit of measure (Base UoM) or alternative units of measure are assigned to the material.
    • The material master data might be newly created but not fully saved or activated.
    • Data inconsistency or missing data in the material master tables (e.g., MARA, MARM).
    • The material number passed to the function/module is incorrect or does not exist.

    Where does this error typically occur?

    • During sales order creation or processing.
    • When creating or processing purchase orders.
    • In inventory management transactions.
    • In production or planning transactions.
    • When using custom programs or reports that fetch material units.

    Solution / How to fix:

    1. Check Material Master Data:

      • Go to transaction MM03 (Display Material).
      • Enter the material number and check the Basic Data 1 view.
      • Verify that the Base Unit of Measure is maintained.
      • Check the Units of Measure view to ensure alternative units are maintained if required.
    2. Maintain Units of Measure:

      • If missing, use transaction MM02 (Change Material) to maintain the base unit of measure and any additional units.
      • Save the changes.
    3. Verify Material Number:

      • Ensure the material number passed to the program or transaction is correct and exists in the system.
    4. Check for Data Consistency:

      • Run consistency checks or use standard SAP reports to verify material master data integrity.
      • If necessary, consult with your SAP Basis or Data Management team to check for database inconsistencies.
    5. Custom Code / Interface Check:

      • If this error arises in a custom program or interface, verify that the material number is correctly passed and that the program correctly reads the material master data.

    Additional Information:

    • The base unit of measure is mandatory for every material in SAP.
    • Units of measure are stored in table MARM.
    • Material master general data is stored in MARA and MAKT (material descriptions).
    • If the material is created via LSMW, IDoc, or other interfaces, ensure that the unit of measure data is included.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Error WSAM_SHMAE010 No units found for material &1
    Cause Material has no units of measure assigned
    Solution Maintain base and alternative units in MM02
    Transaction MM03 (Display), MM02 (Change)
