    The SAP error message /ECRS/BL_TD062 Unit of measure for kilograms not defined typically indicates that the system is unable to find a definition for the unit of measure (UoM) "kilograms" in the relevant configuration settings. This can occur in various contexts, such as when dealing with materials, inventory management, or logistics.

    Cause:

    1. Missing UoM Definition: The unit of measure for kilograms may not be defined in the system.
    2. Incorrect Configuration: The configuration settings for units of measure may be incomplete or incorrect.
    3. Material Master Issues: The material master record may not have the correct UoM settings.
    4. Custom Development: If there are custom developments or enhancements, they may not be handling the UoM correctly.

    Solution:

    1. Define the Unit of Measure:

      • Go to the transaction code CUNI (Unit of Measure Conversion).
      • Check if "KG" (kilograms) is defined in the system. If not, you will need to create it.
      • Ensure that the UoM is set up correctly with the appropriate conversion factors if necessary.
    2. Check Material Master:

      • Use transaction code MM02 to view the material master record.
      • Ensure that the UoM for the material is set to "KG" and that it is correctly defined in the basic data view.
    3. Review Configuration:

      • Check the configuration settings in the relevant modules (e.g., Materials Management, Sales and Distribution) to ensure that the UoM settings are correctly configured.
      • You can access the configuration through transaction code SPRO and navigate to the relevant sections.
    4. Check for Custom Code:

      • If there are any custom programs or enhancements, review the code to ensure that it correctly handles the UoM for kilograms.
    5. Transport Requests:

      • If the UoM was recently defined or changed, ensure that the changes have been transported to the relevant environment (e.g., from development to production).

    Related Information:

    • Unit of Measure Types: Understand the different types of units of measure (base unit, alternative unit, etc.) and how they are used in SAP.
    • SAP Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for detailed information on units of measure and their configuration.
    • User Exits and BAdIs: If custom logic is involved, check for user exits or Business Add-Ins (BAdIs) that might affect UoM handling.

    By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error message related to the unit of measure for kilograms in SAP. If the issue persists, consider reaching out to your SAP support team for further assistance.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages (message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.

An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
