• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WTADDI414 - Unit of measure &1 not maintained for material &2 ?

  The SAP error message:
  WTADDI414 Unit of measure &1 not maintained for material &2
  typically occurs in the Warehouse Management (WM) or Inventory Management (IM) modules when a unit of measure (UoM) that is being used in a transaction is not defined or maintained for the specified material in the system.
  
  Cause:
  
  The unit of measure (UoM) specified in the transaction (e.g., during goods movement, transfer posting, or warehouse task creation) is not maintained in the material master record.
  Specifically, the UoM &1 (e.g., EA, KG, L, etc.) is not assigned or recognized for material &2.
  This can happen if the UoM is missing in the material master data (basic data or WM data), or if the UoM conversion factors are not maintained properly.
  It may also occur if the UoM is not maintained in the Warehouse Management view or in the unit of measure conversion tables.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Material Master Data:
  
  Go to transaction MM03 (Display Material).
  Enter material number &2.
  Check the Basic Data 1 and Basic Data 2 views to verify the base unit of measure.
  Check the Warehouse Management view to see if the UoM &1 is maintained or if the base UoM matches the UoM used in the transaction.
  
  
  
  Maintain Unit of Measure:
  
  If the UoM &1 is not maintained, add it in the material master.
  Use transaction MM02 (Change Material) to add or correct the UoM.
  Maintain the Alternative Units of Measure if necessary (e.g., sales unit, purchasing unit, etc.).
  Ensure that the conversion factors between the base UoM and the alternative UoM are correctly maintained.
  
  
  
  Check UoM Conversion:
  
  Use transaction CUNI (Units of Measure) to check if the UoM &1 exists and is valid.
  If the UoM is missing, create it here.
  Ensure that the conversion between UoMs is consistent.
  
  
  
  Warehouse Management Settings:
  
  In WM, check if the UoM is maintained in the warehouse product master.
  Use transaction LX02 or LX03 to check warehouse stock and UoM.
  If necessary, update the warehouse product master with the correct UoM.
  
  
  
  Reprocess the Transaction:
  
  After maintaining the UoM correctly, retry the transaction that caused the error.

  Always ensure consistency between the base unit of measure in the material master and the units used in warehouse processes.
  Refer to SAP Note or documentation related to WM and UoM handling if the problem persists.
  Transaction OMWN can be used to maintain warehouse-specific settings related to units of measure.
