The SAP error message M3569 "No admissible units of measure exist" typically occurs when you are trying to perform an operation that requires a specific unit of measure (UoM) for a material, but the system cannot find a valid or admissible unit of measure for that material in the context of the operation being performed.
Causes:
- Missing Unit of Measure: The material master record does not have any units of measure defined for the specific transaction or operation you are trying to perform.
- Incorrect Configuration: The unit of measure settings in the material master may not be configured correctly, or the conversion factors between different units of measure may be missing or incorrect.
- Material Type Restrictions: Certain material types may have restrictions on the units of measure that can be used.
- Transaction Context: The operation you are trying to perform may require a specific unit of measure that is not defined for the material in the current context (e.g., purchasing, inventory management, etc.).
Solutions:
Check Material Master:
- Go to the material master record (transaction code MM03) and check the "Basic Data" and "Purchasing" views to ensure that the required units of measure are defined.
- Ensure that the base unit of measure is set correctly and that any alternative units of measure are also defined.
Define Units of Measure:
- If the required unit of measure is missing, you can add it in the material master. Use transaction code MM02 to edit the material master and add the necessary units of measure.
Check Unit of Measure Conversion:
- Ensure that the conversion factors between different units of measure are correctly defined. This can be done in the "Units of Measure" section of the material master.
Review Material Type Settings:
- Check if there are any restrictions on the material type that might prevent the use of certain units of measure. This can be done in the configuration settings (transaction code SPRO).
Consult Documentation:
- Review SAP documentation or help resources for any specific requirements related to the operation you are trying to perform.
Contact SAP Support:
- If the issue persists after checking the above points, consider reaching out to SAP support 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.
