  The SAP error message CM_EHPRC_FW_IMPORT104 indicates that there is an issue with the unit of measure (UoM) being used in a data import process, specifically that the format does not support the specified unit of measure. This error typically occurs in the context of importing data related to materials, products, or other entities where units of measure are critical.
  Cause:
  
  Invalid Unit of Measure: The unit of measure specified in the import data does not match any of the valid units defined in the SAP system.
  Incorrect Data Format: The data being imported may not be in the expected format, leading to the system being unable to recognize the unit of measure.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the material master or other related settings that do not support the specified unit of measure.
  Data Mapping Errors: If the import is being done through a mapping process, there may be errors in how the units of measure are mapped from the source data to the SAP system.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check the Unit of Measure: Verify that the unit of measure specified in the import file is valid and exists in the SAP system. You can do this by checking the relevant tables (e.g., T006 for units of measure).
  Correct the Data Format: Ensure that the data being imported adheres to the expected format. This includes checking for any leading/trailing spaces, correct data types, and ensuring that the UoM is correctly formatted.
  Review Configuration: Check the configuration settings in the material master or other relevant areas to ensure that the unit of measure is supported. This may involve reviewing the settings in transaction codes like MM01 (Create Material) or MM02 (Change Material).
  Update Mapping: If you are using a mapping tool or process, ensure that the mapping for units of measure is correctly defined and that there are no discrepancies between the source and target systems.
  Test with Sample Data: If possible, test the import process with a small set of data that you know is valid to isolate the issue.
