Alternative units preference calculation

Hi,
over the main transaction vx99 I can join in the part preference calculation.
now the problem is that the calculation allways shot down with the error :
No alternative unit of measure specified.
In know what an alternative units is and where I should put in. But we dont need
an alternative it is in every constallation the unit piece.
any idea what can I do to solve this error ??
thx and regards
Oliver

Hai
Alternative Unit of Measure will be maintained in Material Master data.
MM02 - Select any material - Enter
Inside master u will find a Icon at the top Additional Data
In that select Unit of measure.
I think the problem is While ur using Vx99 ur using different unit which is not maintained in the base unit of measure.
If ur problem solved give me points.

  • LSMW - Alternative Unit of Measurement

    Hi,
    I'm dealing with something very very strange. 
    I'm trying to load the Alternative Unit of Measure for materials via a LSMW.
    I'm using the Standard Batch / Direct input Method
    Object               0020   Material master
    Method               0000
    Program Name         RMDATIND
    Program Type         D   Direct Input
    We need to have the conversion L & GAL and KG & LB.
    GAL & LB are loaded as first.  (This goes in very smoothly). These values are calculated with density.
    Afterwards I load L & KG. So I'm using the function DIMENSIONCHECK_CONVERTABLE to calculate the converted versions.
    So 90% loads like this, without any problem.  But 10% of it goes wrong... When I check try to load this manually with exactly the same number I calculated, I can save the material without any issue.  When I'm using the Job I get following issue: The alternative units of measure are inconsistent.
    How is this possible? And how can I solve this issue without doing it manually?
    Thanks!

    Hi Prasad
    In the Material Master - Sales org.1 view you have a field called Sales Unit.
    there you give the desired UOM and press Enter then you will get a pop up for Conv.factors:Unit of measure, here you have to give the Conversion of the Material UOM to Sales UOM.
    Ex. Material Measure is PC and Sales Measure is BOX
    You need to specify How many peacies will BOX consist of
    like 10 PC = 1 BOX like that you have to give in the Popup

  • Creation of Inspection lot in Alternative Unit of measure

    Dear Guru,
    Our implementation is going on in a Tube manufacturing company where Base Unit is maintain  in KG & 100 % visual inspection is taken place & we accept or reject tube on Pieces. So how can we do this in SAP, Because in SAP Inspection Lot is created on Base Unit & UD (Stock Movement) also in base unit, How can we in corporate Alternative Unit of measure.

    Hi,
          1. give unit of conversion in MM basic data (Unit of measurement) say 1 kg = 10 pieces
           2. add unit of issue as a Pieces in MM QM view
            3. add in inspection paln Unit of measure as Pieces ( if possible )
    Now during stock posting  post the stock KG  and now see in stock MMBE by changing the UOm as a pieces you will get the stock in pieces and you can now issue the material in pieces too.
    Experts pl guide if i am wrong anywhere

    Any reply would be much appreciated.

  • InDesign CS5.5 won't respect Units Preference

    My Units preferences are set to inches, but new documents are still formatted in points.
    Once the document is created, rulers appear in points, and when I open Preferences again, sure enough, units are set to points.
    Once I change it back to inches, my rulers change and everything is fine, until I create the next new document.
    Looks like a bug to me... or am I missing some new setting?

    So lame that this is still a problem... Glad to have found this thread tho...
    I guess I was lucky because in CC I had set indesign up with no documents open... But when 2014 forced me to re-install i figured all my prefs would follow over... Man was I wrong
    Well I am set up now... But adobe... you guys... should really fix the program so you can change the defaults with out having to do it in a special way... More user intuitive...

  • Weighted avg Unit Cost calculation for COGS

    Hi Jerry,
    Thanks for the tip. I actually needed to clean the spreadsheet up and put bogus values in to comply with company policy. Anyhow, here is a sample of the spreadsheet
    http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7499586/junk.png
    Just imagine about 100 products and several hundred raw materials, a dozen types of labor and about 30 types of packaging. It's a monster spreadsheet.
    The "units" under each product is the number of units per batch. You can see each product has two columns. One where you put in how much of a raw material, package type, and labor type go into each batch, the next calculates the cost for each item. Then it gets summed at the top for the total unit cost for that product.
    Let me know if you have any other questions about it. Thanks so much for your help!

  • Alternative Units by Plant

    Hello Everyone!!!!
    Is there any way to maintain alternative unit of measurements for a material by plant? i cannot maintain on the company code level because each of our manufacturing plant handles the product differently. One plant might have 50 products in a box and other 45 in a box.

    Hi Vicky,
    Jurgen is right.
    I can suggest that you tackle it a bit differently; define at client level additional units, like this:
    In plant A a BOX is 50 pieces - call it UOM BXA (standing for box in plant A)
    In plant B a BOX is 45 pieces - call it UOM BXB
    This way you can have all the different alternative units of measure for the varous plants and situations defined.
    Hope that this helps,
    Mario

  • Adding Alternative Unit of measure as part of  attributte of material

    Hi gurus,
    In our source system each material has alternative unit of measure which contain info on converting the base unit of measure (CAR) to MT and PAL.
    I need to add this info as part of material attribute
    e.g.
    Material "A" 10CART = 1 PAL & 100CART = 1MT
    This information captured in MM table "MARM" with material code as the
    As part of 0MATERIAL_ATTR , i need to have additional field that capture the info as below
    CARTPAL = 0.1 (1/10)
    CARTMT = 0.01 (1/100)
    Please help to advice on how to enhance the extractor to cater the above requirement.
    Your help highly appreciated
    Thank you

    hi,
    According to me you can enhance the 0Material_attr to bring the required information from ECC.
    But before enhancing anything ask func consultant or business below ques.
    1) will these unit entry will get created in MARM for any material at the creation of material or it will get updated later on
    2) will this unit value get change for any material during its entire life
    If any of above que ans is yes then how wud u manage in transaction data if unit get changed.
    For that u need to apply feedback concept in transaction dso.
