Change of UOM(Material mangement.)

Hi all ,
I have created a material , which is in released state. I tried to change the UOM of the material , it throws a error message saying ' Unable to Change UOM' since it is attached to a BOM.
I would like to change the UOM . How can i ?
Thanks ,
Sandeep.

Hi sandeep,
Using CS15 you can check which BOMs contain your material. By CS20 (mass) / CS02 you can delete your item from related BOMs and after that hopefully you can change the BUoM.

Anup.

  • Change of UOM in material master?

    Dear SAPIENTS,
    I created a material  with UOM (M)just now and than assigned to inspection plan. Now I am changing the UOM of material to Nos.. I was getting following
    Error: The base unit of measure cannot be changed
    The reasons for this are
    Routings already exist that are assigned to the material.
       RType          RtgGrp            GpC         Plant
       Q             QRW6MTQT        1            1100
    SO I removed the material from inspection plan. But still I am getting the same error. Can anybody tell me the reason behind it?

    Hi Kaushal,
    You need to delete it from the table also.
    The table is MAPL
    To delete entry from table
       1. Run trx SE16n (preferable) or SE16.
       2. Enter the Table MAPL.
       3. Enter the group and counter number.
       4. Now in the command window (Where you type the T Codes) type "_&sap_edit_". And press enter.
       5. A message such "SAP editing function is activated" will flash.
       6. Execute
       7. Delete the entry.
    Then change the UOM

  • Is there any user exit to change the UOM of a material while creating sales

    Hi experts,
    I have a requirement to change the UOM of the item material in sales order while creating.  Could anybody help me in finding the correct user-exit to change the UOM.
    Thanks,
    srinivas.

    Hi Ravish,
    I am already changing the UOM in the same include and in the subroutine "USEREXIT_MOVE_FIELD_TO_VBAP".  But it is again over writing in the standard program.  What I need to do, to remain same UOM.

  • Advantage of Alternative UOM as supposed to changing the UOM of material

    Hi Friends,
    What are the advantages of using alternative unit of measure as supposed to changing the UOM of material? &
    what are the necessary activities in SAP if we change the unit of measure of the material?
    Any pointers.
    Regards

    When you want to handle the material quantity in other units other than it's Base Unit, then alternate unit should be maintained.
    Alternate unit is decided on the basis of area of it's usage.
    If A material is having base unit PC and you want to sale it in KG then mainain the Sale Unit as KG by providing the conversion between PC and KG.
    In the same way Order unit is the unit when you want to procure the material in the unit other than Base unit.
    For maintaining alternate unit, it's corresponding conversion with Base unit is necessary to maintain.
    You can change the base unit of material unless and untill no transactions are done on that material.

  • CHANGING OF UOM FOR EXISTING MATERIALS

    Dear SAPient's,
    We have a material code (Bolt) wherein current uom is in No & enduser transactions is already done upto GRN level.
    Now that end user team wants to change the UOM from NOs to KG for existing material code(Bolt).
    Is this possible, if so how to do it?
    What is impact if we change UOM.
    Please help.
    With warm regards,
    Bijay kumar jha

    Hi Bijay Kumar,
    I don't get you. If you are confident that you can't have KG as an alternative unit and you have to have it as the base UoM of the material, then you don't have a choice but to change the base UoM. For this check e.g. the link that I provided before.
    Cosequences? Well, since the material has to be completely "clean" before you can change the BUoM, all new objects/transactions referring to this material after the change will use the new BUoM, so I can't anticipate any issues.

  • Change alternate UOM

    Hi,
    The client want to change alternate UOM after doine Mvt 105, from 1 ea = 10 to 1 ea = 6.  They have already done Mvt 105, even after cancelling the Mvt 105 the new alternate UOM is not coming.
    Any idea.

    For changing the base UOM, the basic criterias are :
    1.  No stock available for the current & previous period
    2.  No open items (PO, SO, etc..) against these material
    You will be able to change the base UOM once the above criterias are met.
    Thanks & regards,

    hi,
    u have to delete all the records of that particulat material.
    for getting the records, try to change the UOM in the mm02, then it will give u the error and in the upper right left corner u will get the tab by display error.
    once u delete/clear the error it will allow u to change the same.

  • What is the impact - Activating Change Logs for Material Classification Dta

    To activate Change Logs for Material Classification Data I must first set the flag for "Multiple Objs Allowed" for the Class Type 001 Material Class. I am curious of what the impact of setting this flag will be. Also, is there a way to measure the DASD impact of activating the Change logging for this data.
    Thankyou
    Kevin

    In addition to the performance impact the process of turning on Change Logs for Classification data will convert the tables KSSK and AUSP to use an internal SAP number as a key instead of the Material number. This will cause problems for any custom programs that access those files directly and expect the material number to be the key. This file conversion occurs during the execution of program RCCLUKA2 which is used to Flag the change logs for existing records. This can be reversed by running report RMCLINOB. Because of the above impact we decided here to NOT implement this change in production.
