Alternative units of measure are inconsistent; correct the values in SMW01

Hi,

when material replication process is happening we came across an error in SMW01.It shows

Alternative units of measure are inconsistent; correct the values

Message no. COM_PRODUCT_UNIT014

Consider the below example

we have maintained a material from KG to MM which is not a standard SAP conversion but client requires this conversion as

Tubes (Steel) are mainly ordered in M (Meters) but invoiced by the supplier in KG. Then used in production in KG again. In that case we need a conversion M <-> KG.

This is very common practice even in indirect material (e.g. Oil, you order barrels, tu vendor invoices KG and you handle Liters in your stock

can anyone guide me if there is any BADI or SAP note available for this error.

regards

subbu
