3. Open the Product XYZ.

Cause

In this case for product XYZ, no quantity conversion is required because there is no other quantity maintained and this is the reason you are able to change/delete the quantity conversion without any error message.

Resolution

Below is the scenario when the error message will be raised:

a) Missing quantity conversion : If there is any active sales data and sales Unit of Measure which is different from the product's base UoM, then the deletion of the quantity conversion would be restricted with Missing Quantity Conversion.

b) Quantity conversion change: If there is any active sales data and if the product is used in any sales document, then this error message will be raised while deleting the quantity conversion based on the fine tuning.
