    4. Data Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the data between the material master and the purchasing documents.

    Solution:

    1. Check Material Master:

      • Go to the material master record (transaction code MM02).
      • Check the purchasing view and ensure that a valid unit of measure is defined for the material.
