  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WTADDI_IDOC010 - No text exists for ISO unit of measure &1 in language &2 ?

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


    SAP Error Message:

    WTADDI_IDOC010 No text exists for ISO unit of measure &1 in language &2


    Meaning / Cause:

    This error occurs when SAP tries to process an IDoc (Intermediate Document) that contains a unit of measure (UoM) code (ISO standard) which does not have a corresponding text description maintained in the system for the specified language.

    • &1 = The ISO unit of measure code that is missing a text.
    • &2 = The language key in which the text is missing.

    In other words, the system is trying to display or process a unit of measure, but it cannot find the descriptive text for that UoM in the language specified.


    Why does this happen?

    • The unit of measure code exists in the system but the language-dependent description (text) for that UoM is not maintained.
    • The IDoc processing or display requires the text to show meaningful information.
    • This can happen if a new UoM was created or used in the IDoc but the text for that UoM was not maintained in all relevant languages.

    Where is this text maintained?

    The text for ISO units of measure is maintained in SAP customizing under:

    • Transaction Code: CUNI (Units of Measure)
    • Or via IMG path:
      SPRO -> Logistics - General -> Units of Measure -> Check Units of Measure

    In CUNI, you can maintain the unit of measure codes and their descriptions in different languages.


    Solution:

    1. Check the unit of measure code &1 in transaction CUNI.
    2. Verify if the description exists for language &2.
    3. If the description is missing, maintain the text for the unit of measure in the required language.
    4. Save the changes.

    Additional Notes:

    • If the UoM code is not valid or not used anymore, consider correcting the IDoc data or mapping to a valid UoM.
    • Sometimes, the error can also occur if the language &2 is not installed or supported in the system. Ensure the language is installed.
    • After maintaining the text, reprocess the IDoc or the transaction that caused the error.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Error No text exists for ISO unit of measure &1 in language &2
    Cause Missing description for UoM code in specified language
    Solution Maintain the UoM text in transaction CUNI for language &2
    Transaction CUNI (Units of Measure)
    Related IMG Logistics - General -> Units of Measure -> Check Units of Measure

    If you need further help, please provide the exact UoM code and language key from the error message.
