Addition: New Units of Measurement

Dear All,
I think, its MM-related query. However, I am sharing it with all you people.
I need to add new Units of Measurements, like RIM, which are not configured in Standard SAP-Sysem.
Where do i congigure the same (Path & T. Code)?
Also, what are other significant pre-requirements for configuring new Units of Measurements?
Thanks and Best Regrds,
Amit Kr. Yadav

hi,
use t codE: CUNI ---> click dimensions
else
spro> img>general settings-->check unit of measures
hope this helps u

Creation of new unit of measurment

Gurus
How to crete the new unit of measurment which can be used for conversion and what are the tcode.
Atul Kulkarni

Hi,
You can create UoM's by using transaction CUNI.
Check for the right dimension under which the new UoM falls under..e.g.Assign the SI unit (In each dimension, a unit is defined as the SI unit. This is the basis for the conversion from one unit to another.) to the dimension if required.
Create a ISO code.The ISO code is important for EDI. It is used to convert the internal SAP measurement units into standard measurement units.
Define UoM: Be aware to give the correct commercial as well as Technical unit,the commercial unit is used in SAP whereas technical unit you can use in EDI,IDoc.You can assign the ISO code while defining UoM's.Hope this helps!

New Unit of measures & ISO codes

Hello,
We are currently trying to create some new unit of measure in our system which will be used in QM module and are very specific. For this reason, we can't find any corresponding ISO code in our SAP system. SO we have a few question about this point :
1) Could you tell us which UoM is ISO or not among the above list ? For ISO UoM, could you give us the corresponding 3 digits code (field T006I- ISOCODE) we will need to use to create them into our system?
o   AE :                                       Amylogram Equivalent
o   °BX :                                     Brix Degree
o   Cfu/m3:                              Colony Forming Unit per m3
o   IU/kg :                                 International Unit per Kilogram
o   meq/kg :                            Milli Equivalent per Kilogram (WHO-TEQ)
o   µg/100g :                            Microgram per 100 grams
o   mL/100g :                           Milliliter per 100 grams
o   pg WHO-TEQ/g :             Picogram per Gram
o   g/mL :                                  Gram per Milliliter
2) Is it possible to add some new ISO codes in this SAP standard table (T006C)? On your side, do you update the content of this standard table (update of the content of the standard table) and dispatch it to your customer?
3) Do you have a website or SAP transaction referencing the entire official ISO codes you've registered?
In this website link(http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/SI/UnitofMeasurerelatedsettingsinSAP), you are redirecting us to an ISO reference website in part I.2.(http://www.unece.org/etrades/codesindex.htm ) which is not working anymore
Thanks in advance for your help.

Additional/suplimentary unit of measure for Intrastat

Hi!
I am trying to generate the Intrastat declaration.
I have a problem; i am using an commodity code with suplimentary unit of measure p/st. But I cannot define the unit of measure p/st in SAP because the maximum lenght for unit of measure is three characters.
There should be a table BNADDM in SAP where suplimentary unit of measure exists. But this table in empty im my system.
How can I configure unit of measure p/st in SAP in order to add it to commodity code configuration?
Thanks,
Marcel

found in Romania_Intrastat_docuE.doc which is attached to OSS note 1016386 - Intrastat for Romania
Customizing for the Electronic format
Please note following customizing related to the conversion of the Supplementary Unit of Measure has been involved.
The issue: The information about unit measure in SAP is maintained with majuscule (capital letters) and in external system (INS) no (e.g. M3 in SAP and in INS it is m3.)
The customizing is to setup the correct INS supplementary units of measure. Once you need to convert any UoM supplied with SAP application, fill the external system (INS) Unit of measure via the maintenance view:
/CEECV/ROLO_UO_V via transaction sm30.

Creation of New Base Unit of Measure

Hi Forum, does anyone have any detail on how to go about creating new units of measure and what to look out for? Any documentation would be appreciated.
I know the Tcode (CUNI) and to copy certain existing BuM's but was wondering about the ISO and whether i actually need to apply for this as we wont be using EDI with our Vendors. Any best practice or guidance to be aware of would be highly appreciated.
Thanks
Dan

Generally, if you are creating new Uom same as like exisitng one and you are not using the EDI than you are file with ISO code but if you are planning to use EDI than you can search for ISO code on Google. If the Uom is standard other wise you have to use the exisitng which can match some percentage to your Uom

Pricing Procedure for diffrent unit of measure for diffrent product

1) Existing Pricing procedure --> Condition type based on Quantity
2) Existing Product --> Sales Unit & Base Unit of Measurement is in NOS ( Numbers )
3) New Product ( Belt ) ---> Pricing of product based on weight
ex :--> Rubber Belt --> 1 belt = 11.50 kg , Price = Rs. 100/ kg
As the production of material will go on weight of Belt will reduce in range of 11.50 to 11 kg . For different batch of production weight will change
every time weight of material will be calculated and price will be charged on basis of net weight ( Kg)
4) New product is assigned to new division ( it will bw sold in new division only )
Question
1) What should be Base Unit / Sales Unit of measurement ?
2) Do we need to create new pricing procedure or existing pricing procedure will work ?
for new product we need to create new condition type for which calculation type will be Net Weight .
3) do we need to do any customization for this ?
Exice people say that if pricing is done in KG (Net weight ) they want to see stock in KG
Management want to see stock in KG & Numbers

May be you can Create a New Unit Of Measure called ZPC. For using ZPC you need to assign Additional Base Unti Of Measure as ZPC in your Material Masters as well.
Use ZPC to create your condition records of pricing and in Sales order you will still have Unit of Measure as PC which the management wants to see..
Similarly you can create Constion records for new product based on Kg.

Risk in populating Unit of measure for commodity code (foreign trade) in ECC

We have recently implemeted product classification in GTS for the EU and US. We want to implement the transfer of tariff data from GTS to ECC via the standard GTS transactions /SAPSLL/SWN_RTR and /SAPSLL/SWN_RTR_R3.
Our compliance team is concerned about beginning to populate the unit of measure commodity code in ECC. I know this field is only visible when a supplementary unit is on the tariff number and is different than the base unit of measure on the material master. These additional units of measure must be configured in order for the XML tariff files to load properly.
One concern that has come up is the conversion of the base UoM to the new unit of measure from the tariff files. Are there other issues/risks I need to be aware of? My understanding is this unit is used only when reporting the products to the customs authorities.
I appreciate any guidance you can give me.

Hello Alison,
We implemented this, however, made an enhancement not to transfer the UOM to ECC. Our consultants are unable to clearly articulate the use of UOM in classification. I still have not have a complete grasp of UOM with classification. One thing we constantly run into, is job fails when external/internal UOM is not maintained during transfer of classification from GTS to ECC. Since we are not transferring UOM to ECC, we are now considering enhancement, so we do not have to maintain internal/external UOM from the files we receive from Customs Info. We have had a number of issues trying to figure out what to maintain as internal UOM for UOM sent by Customs Info. There is no ISO code to cross reference and makes it very difficult to figure this out.
Another thing that you need to be aware off - if you have products that is not classified in GTS and you have classification maintained in ECC, you can overwrite ECC values with blanks- the product master change/update date (for anything - not just classification) is picked up by the re-transfer job. We are currently making enhancements in the commodity code retransfer program, only to transfer when there is a value in GTS for classification.
I see Dave's message above " UoM is necessary for the calculation that supports your sourcing decisions as well as for your declarations to the authorities". I am really interested to understand the function of UOM in classification.

Padma

Maintaining Unit of Measure (not alternative)

Dear colleagues,
I need to maintain a unit of measure (1 BOT is equal to 45 DEG) where we are going to use it for Z programsu2019 calculations, not in standard functions. But I don't want to maintain this ratio under additional data  units of measure because if I maintain then there is possibility of being use this new measure in sales ordersu2019 etc. Is there any other field where I can maintain this ratio without infecting standard calculations?
Regards

I would suggest you need to put logic in Zprogram.When ever program finds this UOM it will automatically converts and will update in sheet.
Maintain UOM convertion in a Z table.This will help if you want to add some more UOM it is use ful to you.While running in Z report it will fetch the convertion from table .

BOM Unit of measure.

Hi gurús,
I want to include a material in a material list with a different unit of measure than the base unit of measure recorded in the material info record.
I tried creating a new unit measure in the additional data at the material info record, but then, when I include the material with the new unit of measure in the material list, the system display an error message (A) as the following:
"Unit of measure KG not supported for material XXA in plant AAB"
I would like to know how to include a material in a material list with a different unit of measure.
Example:
Material 100
Base unit of measure: UN
CS02
Additional data --> Unit of measure: KG
CS02 --> Material 100 with unit KG.
The system display error message (A).
Thanks in advance

Enzo

Unit of measurement for materials received and withdrawn

Hi Experts,
Base unit of material is KG whereas sales unit is M2 and conversion is maintained between both. Now I am using sale unit (M2) while entering material componenets. Then I am raising PR, PO, GR in project and withdraw the material in sale unit M2. But system updates the report in KG (under purchasing data tab of component). When I get material report, system shows reqmt qty in M2 but received and withdrawn qty in KG. Its confusing and doesn' serve the reporting purpose. Can we do something so that received and withdrawn qty will appear in M2 (sale unit) rather than KG (base unit)?
Thanks and Regards
Dinesh Chauhan

Hi,
To resolve this issue, you need to maintain the conversion factors. In material master, additional tab, unit of measure tab you need to maintain the conversion factors. Say example I Kg = How much M2. If you maintain this the system will convert automatically all the Kg in to M2, or vice versa you can do. Otherwise you can maintain the conversion factors in the Info Record also for externally procured materials.

Need Multiple Units of Measure for a given material due to multiple vendors

Hello,
We have a requirement where we must have multiple units of measue (each, box, case, pallet) for a given material.
Background:
We have multiple vendors for one SAP material number. We need to store 4 levels of units of measure for each vendor+material combination.
Unit of Meaure levels
1. Each
2. Innerpack (ex: 12 each = 1 innerpack)
3. Box (ex: 36 eaches = 1 box)
4. Pallet (ex: 100 eaches = 1 pallet)
Standard SAP allows in MM01 additional data --> Units of Measure only 1 Ea, Box, Plt, etc.
Our requirement is to allow multiple Units of Measure due to multiple vendors providing the same material.
So, our unique combination is by a Material+Vendor.
We are considering adding the vendor name and vendor number to the material master --> additional data --> Units of Measure tab.
Does this seem like a good solution? What impacts do you foresee with approach?
Any alternatve solutions?
We thought we could enhance the purchasing info records to allow multiple units of measure too but then we need to also add many fields to hold the weight, lenght, height, width, volume, country of origin, etc.
Please recommend a best practice or solution to handle this requirement.
Thanks in advance!!!

Hi,
Maintain the alternative units in Material Master in Additional Data -> Units of Measure section with proper conversion factors.
Create individual info-records i.e. per mtl-vendor combination & in the info-record maintain the order unit, along with other details as required.
Now when you create a PO, the details will be read from the info-record. To test the same, create them in your sandbox & see if it meets your requirement.
Hope the above clarifies your query.
Regards,
Vivek

Mass deletion of Batch specific unit of measure

Dear Experts,
How to delete the batch specific unit of measure in the material master maintained in the additional data -unit of measure and proportional / production unit of measure in mass . We have some 1000 material for which we want to remove the datas related to batch specific unit of measure from the material master.

I have not yet seen an option to delete data with MM17, but I am open to be educated.
I would suggest you do it with LSMW or CATT.
However, test it first in MM02, before you waste your time with mass processing. You might receive errors if that material was already in use and batches exist.
