Text No alternative unit of measure specified

Diagnosis You want the system to convert from the base unit of measure to an alternative unit of measure for the current material. However, this alternative unit of measure is missing.

Hi

Have you maintained the Sales Unit in the Sales Org 1 tab of Material Master.

While maintaining the Sales Unit, the system will throw a pop up where you need to maintain the conversion factor between the Base Unit of Measure and the Alternate Unit (Sales Unit).

If you have maintained this correctly in the Material Master, you will not get that error in the sales order.
