Please tell me how to convert the Unit of Measure like my client produces the material in KGs but the sales unit is Quintal. But in Standars there is no Quintal UoM. i want to make 100 Kgs is 1 Quintal. Tell me how to define the conversion factors.
thanks in advance

How to manage variable conversion factor in UOM to order unit

Hi,
We have a material whose base unit is PC unit price is 8 Euro / PC
Order unit is Box now we do not have a standard conversion factor.
Means sometimes vendor send 8 pc/ Box ,10 pc /Box and 12 pc /Box
so when we create Material master and enter order unit as Box in purchasing view system ask for conversion rate
if we do not enter any the value in PC field its taking 1 Box =1 PC as default.
Example: Now while creating PO say we order for 10 box.(at this point we do not know exact conversion rate)
and in the conditions we maintain price against PC .system calculate.
Now when we receive the material then we actually know how much QTy we receive in SKU (PC) but that field is blur (no input) in 101 mvt type.
One more thing In MIGO we can enter the Qty in PO Price Unit say we enter 80 PC
system only creates stock value posting (80 * 8 =640 Euro ) but the stock qty in MMBE is still 10 piece ( from 1:1 conversion with box)
Please suggest how we can handle this variable conversion rate.
So that we can enter correct Qty in the time of GR ( MIGO ).
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Thanks for the valuable Input.
For our material base unit is PC order unit is Box.
Say we main a conversion factor 10 PC =1 Box ( a default value) in MM01
And we order 10 Box. but when we receive we found that vendor send 12 pc per Box so total 120 pc
[ Po price unit is in PC in condition details]
Now in MIGO we cannot modify that Qty ( from 100 to 120 in PC)
SO you are suggesting here we receive 12 box in MIGO. so that actual qty in PC is correct..
Thanks again

Item uom Conversion factor

Hi
Please suggest me how to map it in SAP.
As required Material to be issued in diffrent conversion factor in which it has been recieved in Kgs and could be issued in mtrs.

Hi Raman,
There are 3 UoM in B1. Sales, Purchasing, Inventory. If you brought in in Kg and wanted to issue it on meter, then you should set the Inventory UoM to Meter, Puchasing UoM to Kg and concertion ratio in the purchasing data on how many meter per kg (item per puchasing UoM). By this way, you should set the price list per meter.
Or you can create another item code for item in meter. Good issue item in kg, convert it by creating Goods Receipt for item in meter. Both document should be on the same value (total item cost). Then issue the item in meter as you mention.
Cheers

Query Designer : Quantity Conversion as per UOM

Hi gurus,
I am facing a typical situation here. I have Product Quantity data that I fetch from R3, This has diff UOM based on different product. I know the conversion factor. I have not included the conversion factor in the transformation while loading the data. Hence in the cube, the data is loaded without any conversion.
Now, in my query, I want that the Quantity data be displayed always in say BOX (Whether at aggregate level, ex. Sales Office level or at a more granular level (product brand level)) it should always be in BOX. Can I make such a modification in my query so that the end result for quantity should always be in BOX.
thanks n regards,
Sree

Hi Sree,
You can set unit conversion for relevant key figures in the Query Designer.
For that, you need to create a quantity conversion type first.
For a BW7.x system, use transaction RSUOM to maintain quantity conversion type.
It could be defined like this:
Source unit: from data record
Target unit: fixed: BOX
Hope this helps.

Patricia

Conversion factor plant or any other organizational unit wise

Dear Experts,
Is it posible to maintain the conversion factor between base unit and alter nate unit plant or any other organizational unit wise?
Please suggest.
Rgds

Dear
what you haver to do is:
Go to MM02...
If say you Base UOM is EA and you want to maintain Carton as Alternate UOM...
then give EA in Base UOM ...Now click on additional data-Click on Unit of Measure Tab---Here you maintain your conversion factor for EA and Carton...
If at all you are at client level, then also no issues as there are maintained at Masters level.
These data are maintained at Client level.

Conversion change for UOM in PO

Dear All,
There are some PO which are posted dated 14.07.2010 for which the uom conversion is 3 pcs <=> to 1 CSE as what is set in the material master for that material selected in PO. But for the same material for which PO posted after 29.03.2010, UOM conversion for the PO is changed to 12 pcs <=> 1 cse but conversion in material master is same as 3 pcs <=> to 1 CSE. but only in PO it is dislaying as 12 instaed as 3 pcs.
Also there was some scheduled Transport window on 14.07.2010 which could have make some changes.
Kindly help where could and how could we trace the issue or its technical issue.
Regards,
Prashanth Pai

Dear,
As per the analysis, the PO is created from PR and not from Contract. Also for the PO created on 14.07.2009 and PO created on 22.06.2010 has the same inforecord and has the same conversion factor as in material master set i.e. 1cse = 3 pcs but in PO dated 22.06.2010 its diplaying it as 1 cse = 12 pcs.
kindly suggest

Conversion factor error in sales order - Unit of measure

Hi All,
I have uploaded a sales item in to sales order with alternate UoM. The base unit of measure for that material is TO but i have uploaded with a alternate UoM KG. After that i have created project deliveries, invoices and accounted those invoices in last financial year and now i found that the conversion factor which is taken by the system was wrong.
Instead of taking 1000 KG = 1 TO, system has taken 1KG = 1000 TO
I have checked the material master there there is no alternate UoM has maintained.
So now my concern is that
1. how i can correct this conversion factor with out disturbing my old transactions.
2. From where system is considered this conversion factor.
Thanks & Regards,
Bhadrarao.

Check your conversion factors in your Unit of Measure configuration. Transaction CUNI. Look at the unit of measures for Mass.

Hi ,
i'm using the conversion function UPX_CRM_CONVERSION_FACTOR in planning layout where there is in column the calendar week.
So when select one week, the function return 0 instead if i select more than one week, only on the last week, the conversion factor is 0.
Why this function have this behavior? I would that the conversion factor is the same for all week.
Thanks.

Conversion factor problem for density - PP-PI

Hi Gurus!
Now i am in pp implementation for process industry.
(Lubricants manufacturing Industry)
1. On production of Semi Finished product each batch will be given a conversion factor where Raw materials will be consumed in KG and on MIGO (GR) output of Semi finished will be captured in Liters. In BOM for SKU (STOCK KEEPING UNIT) wise production it will be maintained in Liters.
Now my area of concern are:-
1. Conversion factor to be used at what stage & whether it is to be made flexible for each Process Order:
   In proposed PP module it is being principally decided to undertake production of final FG in two stages.
   First the production will be for product and in second stage it will be for the SKUs. The consumption of RAW materials will continue to be booked in KG. After the Blending is over when we do the GR for the Semi finished product the unit of measure should be in Liters ( that will depend on the Density after Blending)only.
   In Blending( Mixing of Base oil & Additive) operation the quality person will check the density (Kg/L)
After applying the density he arrives semifinished quantity as detailed below:
For Example : semifinish UOM -
Liter
            Raw mat1 qty   850Kg
            Raw mat2   qty 150kg
                    Total   =   1000kg
Density of semifinish Material at 29.5deg C = 0..8957
semifinish quantity is 1000/0.8957 = 1116.45 Liter ( This is actual output)
we need At the time of confirmation(COR6) the system will consume the raw material as 1000Kg and will give Semifinished qty as 1116.45 Liter
How to map in SAP?

Hi,
You can handle this scenario by the use of Batch specific unit of measure.
For Your Halb code use two unit of measure,
- one which will be your Base Unit of measure - KG
- Second will be your Production unit - Ltr,
[ Batch Specific Unit of Measure|http://help.sap.com/bestpractices/BBLibrary/Documentation/Q24_BB_ConfigGuide_EN_US.doc]
Now Do production / Confirmation and GR in KG.
Insert MIC for Density where QA person do the test for Denstity.Use this MIC as a Link MIC so that value of MIC transfer to the Batch data of that Batch no. of that Halb code.
With help of settings made in Batch specific unit of measure and dependency u will find stock in liters also.

Conversion factor on condition recorder

Hi All,
I have surcharge on billing document, this surcharge is fixed value by box, the UOM on billing is PC(Pieces).
I configure a condition type for surcharge, and maintain the condition recorder by box, maintain the conversion factor, but the conversion factor does not work in billing, the surcharge is caculated by PC, not by Box.
For example, I create the condition recorder
Material Amount Unit per UOM
M-001 1.00 USD 1 BOX
Conversion factor:
1 Box <=> 2 PC
I have 3 pc in billing document.
But the surcharge is 1.5 USD, not 2 USD.
Why does the conversion factors not work?
How can I get the surcharge by box?

If the value is getting converted into 2 $ instead of 1.5$ then it may be due to rounding off rule. In billing or when the value is posted to GL account, according to New gl account rule it will automatically round off the value.
and same way check you condition type for the condition rounding off is tick or blank.

Sudhir

Conversion Factor to 7 Character

Hi Experts,
Presently we can maintain conversion factor upto 5 digit in material master mm01/ mm02. i.e.
example 1 kg = 99999 Nos, but we want to maintain 1 Kg = 9999999, how can it happen.
Please confirm spro settings.
Thanks & Regards
GR

Hi G R,
I think what Mr. Brahmankar is explaining is set the decimal places for the UOM Kg as 2 or 3, so you may be able to maintain the conversion factor as 0.01KG=99999Nos which will be similar to 1 KG = 9999999 Nos.
Dear Bhramnkar,
Pls correct me if I am wrong.

Hi
your poits:
1. in conversion it will not accpt decimals , it is std feature.
in stead you have to like this:

In the Purchase info record General data screen, at the bottom of the page ,there is Purcahse order unit of measure under that heading you have the Conversion factors.
