Digits in Unit of Measure "%"

Hi all,
for one position we use "%" as unit of measure. In our developing-system I am able to enter a decimal number WITH comma. In our productive system that´s not possible.
Does anyone know where to change that behaviour, i.e. if commas are allowed in a unit of measure?
many thanks & best regards,
Thomas Kejik (Vienna)

Thomas,
Such a message is received when the format of entered figure is not correct.
You'd better, first, look at the format of your % UoM (CUNI t-code): number of decimals (if any) and digits total.
It's very important because the definition of your UoM might be different in Dev & Prod. Especially if import of global settings (that includes UoMs) is done from underlying R/3 systems.
Then try to enter the number with appropriate decimal delimiters, triades delimiters, number of decimals etc.
Hope you'll be lucky!

Unit of Measurement in Material Master

Hello Experts...
I have an intresting issue on Unit of Measurement. I would like to maintain alternative unit of measurement as per below..
1 EA = 1 EA
1 ROLL = 5000 EA
1 CT = 150,000 EA
However the field UMREZ length in the material master allows me to enter upto 5 digits...and also it is not possible to enter decimal digits here.
Have any one of you faced this kind of issue, if any one faced what would be the solution for this...?
Look forward to hearing from you..
Cheers
Umakanth..

Hi Umakanth,
For increasing the numerator for conversion of base unit of measure, UMREZ would be appending the structure SMEINH by requesting Access Key from SAP.
Even though its not a suggestible decision to append standard SAP structure , if the requirement demands we may need to do that.
Cheers!

Conversion Problem in Unit of measure 1PAC=100,000 EA

Hi Experts,
I am facing the problem in conversion of Unit of Measures.
If some material has the conversion unit when we order to Vendor.
The Unit of measure is EA, the Order unit is PAC.
The conversion is 1PAC=100,000 EA
But the System is allowing as 1PAC=10,000 EA only and it is not allowing to enter 100,000 EA and throughing the error
Entry too long (enter in the format __,___)
Message no. 00089
How can we increase the characters of the Unit of measure. Like this we have some 50 Materials, I need to increase the length of the conversion spaces. How to do it, Please guide me.

Hi
you can check this out the denominator factor is Stored in structure - SMEINH - field UMREN.
Best option is to maintain decimal place for the UOM , which is more easier to mainatin.
Even if you go through the note the same is explained. Please read below for Too large numerators and denominators
When 120000 CM3 = 0,2 tons (TO), you can no longer save numerator and denominator of conversion ratio 600000 CM3 = 1 TO as numerator and denominator may have maximally five digits.
Here, you must either select a larger volume unit or a smaller unit of weight: With DM3 the conversion ratio would be 600 DM3 = 1 TO, with KG the conversion ratio would be 600 CM3 = 1 KG.
Generally, the alternative units of measure and the base unit of measure should result in quantities that are in the same dimension since the conversion factors may not be larger than 99999/1 and not smaller than 1/99999.
Thanks & Regards

Numerator in Unit of Measure not big enough

Hi,
The numerator, field UMREZ, of the unit of measure has a maximun lenght of 5 digits ( maximum of 99999 ). But for certain conversion I need (in MM02-> aditional data->tab units of measure):
120000 EA = 1 ROL
How can I do this without entering something bigger than 99999?
I have thought in three alternatives:
1.- Modification of that data domain, so that it can be stored up to 999999.
2.- Use decimals in the denominator , so that I have something like 12000 EA = 0,1 ROL.
3.- With an auxiliar unit of measure EA2 ( created via CUNI, linked to EA): 10 EA2 = 1 EA :::::and then::::: 120000 EA2 = 1 ROL.
I havent been able to complete the 2nd and the 3rd. ANd I want to avoid the first...
Do you know if something like this can be done? if so, how????
I have found post UOM conversion not big enough but I could not find any usefull answer in there ...
Many thanks in advance.
Aaron

Hi,
Yes, I had already read this note, thanks for the info anyways.
They describe exactly my case:
Example 3: Too large numerators and denominators
                       When 120000 CM3 = 0,2 tons (TO), you can no longer save numerator and denominator of conversion ratio 600000 CM3 = 1 TO as numerator and denominator may have maximally five digits.
                       Here, you must either select a larger volume unit or a smaller unit of weight: With DM3 the conversion ratio would be 600 DM3 = 1 TO, with KG the conversion ratio would be 600 CM3 = 1 KG.
                       Generally, the alternative units of measure and the base unit of measure should result in quantities that are in the same dimension since the conversion factors may not be larger than 99999/1 and not smaller than 1/99999.
But I can not change the Basic Unit of Measure, because the Material has already movements, and I dont know how to create another unit of measure (let say EA2) linked to EA with a the value 1 EA2 = 10 EA. In this case I could use EA2 in the material with the conversion 12000 EA2 = 1 ROLL.
Is this possible? How can I create this unit? in CUNI I can create a new UOM but I dont see how to link it with an existing one ( create a conversion between them ) .
Thanks!!

Decimal Points for Unit of Measurement

Hi all
For doing service entry in the QTY field can we put the value upto six decimal for any unit.
in customisation for Unit of measurement can we configure this thing putting decimal places - six or is there any other setting is required
Please help
Thanks in advance
Rajesh

Hi,
Yes in customisation for Unit of measurement you can customize it,
but it will be valid whenver you use this UOM in the system.
There is one thing also you can do
The Quantity fields decimal points in service entry is by default 3 digits ,
so to use 1,123456 quantity for lets say price 10 $
you can multiply both sides with 1000
i mean
use 1123,456 for 10000 $
just an idea
Regards
Hope it 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 Unit of Measure

I have my base unit of measure set as EA and in the additional unit of measure I'm trying to put a conversation to state that 1 EA = 165838 KG
The system wouldn't allow that since the this field in the table only accepts 5 characters and 0 dec. (it also saves the digits in x,xxx format which means I can only give 4 digits).
Is there anything to do to fix this? I can't store in Ton because it won't be accurate.
Thank you

Ideally your base unit should be the smallest unit or a small unit. In this case KG should have been the base unit.
However, if you still wish to continue...
try using 500 EA = 82919 TON (This is exact if 1 TON = 1000 KG)
If it is not allowing 5 digits, and you are willing to have a minor approximation, you can use
50 EA = 8292 TON. At 1 TON = 1000 KG, this works out to 1 EA = 165840 KG (A difference of 2 KG from actual figure).
Hope this helps,
Lakshman
P.S. Dear Srao, changing the number of decimals in currencies and Units of measures is not recommended.

Error while defining alt unit of measurement in material master

All SAP gurus,
i am trying to define a alt unit of measurement in a finished material, the base unit of measurement is in MT, and the sales unit is nos. the conversion formula is 53 nos = 1kg i.e. 1MT = 53000 nos. as conversion can be done only with base unit of measurement i am giving 53000 nos = 1 MT, but system unable to calculate the conversion as it is not taking mere than 3 digit after decimal.
e.g. if 53000 nos = 1 MT
then 1 nos should be = 0.000018 MT
but system not taking this value as this value contain 6 digit after decimal
suggest me what can be the way out? with detailed steps. can i increase the post decimal value or i have to define another middle alt unit of measurement (like KG). and if that is to be done then how.
Regards

Error message 'Enter unit of measure' in Webclient

Hello Experts,
We are working on CRM 5.0 SP 7, IC WebClient and have implemented the BAdi "CRM_SERVICEPROD_BADI" to assign a service product ''INVESTIGATION' whenever user selects service ticket in WebClient.
However, when confirming a Business Partner and accessing the service ticket, an error is getting displayed stating "Enter the unit of measure".
We have already mentioned the unit of measure in Product but it seems it is not picking from there.
Please help me to remove this error.
Reward points assured for useful answers.
Regards,
Amit

hi
I had a similar Problem
You will have to assign the base unit of measure in service tab as hours and then in the sales and distribution tab assign the same unit in the sales unit and give minimum order quantity(for e.g-1) & delivery unit ,this you will have to do for all the sales areas you might have mapped in the S&D tab
I'm sure the issue will be resolved
Cheers!!

How to retrieve the values from a table if they differ in Unit of Measure

How to retrieve the values from a table if they differ in Unit of Measure?

If no data is read
- Insure that you use internal code in SELECT statement, check via SE16 desactivating conversion exit on table T006A. ([ref|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/2a/fa0122493111d182b70000e829fbfe/frameset.htm])
If no quanity in result internal table
- There is no adqntp field in the internal table, so no quantity is copied in itab ([ref|http://help.sap.com /abapdocu_70/en/ABAPINTO_CLAUSE.htm#&ABAP_ALTERNATIVE_1@1@]).
- - Remove the CORRESPONDING, so quantity will fill the first field adqntp1. ([ref|http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABENOPEN_SQL_WA.htm])
- - Then loop at the internal table and move the quantity when necessary to the 2 other fields.
* Fill the internal table
SELECT msehi adqntp
INTO TABLE internal table
FROM lipso2
WHERE vbeln = wrk_doc1
 AND msehi IN ('KL','K15','MT').
* If required move the read quantity in the appropriate column.
LOOP AT internal_table ASSIGNING <fs>.
CASE <fs>-msehi.
 WHEN 'K15'.
 <fs>-adqnt2 = <fs>-adqnt1.
 CLEAR <fs>-adqnt1.
 WHEN 'MT'.
 <fs>-adqnt3 = <fs>-adqnt1.
 CLEAR <fs>-adqnt1.
ENDCASE.
ENDLOOP.
- You could also create another table with only fields msehi and adqntp and then collect ([ref|http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABAPCOLLECT.htm]) the data to another table.

Production Order for a Material with two units of measure?

Hi Everybody I have the following issue.
In my company there is a new production process with a Material that should be configured in the master data with the field "Base Unit of Measure" as per unit (each). But the production process, should be confirmed by tx CO11N, in Kilograms. I know that I can use the additional Data in tx MM03 to set a Production Unit, but the value of convertion would be fixed. For example 122 Kg = 1 each, the thing is that the value in kilograms for each lot can vary, one lot can weight 122 and another one can weghr 125, and in each case I shoul have two units in stock. And as I have the value of convertion fixed, when I confirm each lot one for 122 kg and another for 125 kg I will have 2.025 units in MB52.
How can I solve this problems? I need to have the chance the confirm in kg changing for each lote the quantity but in the base Unit of Measure have one unit for lot. As if for tx CO11N I could have a field where I can set tha x quantity of Kilograms is x each.
Kind regards
Leandro.

Hi Ayoub, First thank`s for your promt answer,
1. The Quantity is different, because is not a perfect process, there is a manual work in the process that makes this quantity differ, there is no big difference, maybe a Kilo or Two but the production mannager wants to have this registered. And besides in productions they manage kilograms, but for selling the comercials manage units (each - EA)
2.The convertion rate is known at the end of the process after cutting and packaging a unit, they weight it.
Regards
Leandro

Standard report for unit of measures

Is there any standard report to see the Fert material unit of measures and its alternate unit of measures.

HI
there is no standard reprot for you requirment.
only UOM of material you canget from MM60.
but if you want alternate also got with table data MARM
1.use SE16-- enter the table name MARM
2.enter the material(field MATNR), and execute you get the report

T006-Decan change after users have used the TO unit of measure

Currently in our system for TO (tonnes) it has T006-Andec as 3 and T006-Decan as 0 and it issues the users a warning message "Order quantity violates rounding rule" if they type in decimals in the purchase order quantity. We have been asked to change T006-Decan to a 3 and do away with the warning message. What happens if you change T006-Decan from 0 to 3 after users have already used the unit of measure (TO) in the R/3 SAP_APPL 470 system on materials, purchase orders, sales documents, receipts, etc...? I don't want to impact our users in production since I do not where this unit of measure has been used. Any advice is welcomed. Thank you.

Hi
If you are changing the decimal places in T006 - DECAN , the number which was 1000 would show as 1,000... so previously it was 1000 tonnes now it will show as 1 tonne.... such things happen....Check with SAP before doing changes to the Standard UOM's...
I am not able to find the correct SAP note for this.... but its there hope you get it
Thanks & Regards

Follow up material with different base unit of measure

Hi all,
I have the BOM with material Mat1 as a component. The base unit of measure of Mat1 is KG.
Is it possible to replace Mat1 with Mat 2 material in MRP once the Mat1 warehouse stock is depleted.
The base unit of measure of Mat 2 is KGK.
The required quantity of MAT1 should be recalculated from KG to KGK accordanly unit ratio.
Please, expain, where does it maintain?
Thanks,
Peter

Hello Peter,
You can use follow-up setting (set Mat2 as follow-up of Mat1 in MRP 4 view of material master if this follow-up scenario is valid for all BOM) with discontinuation indicator '1', w/o effective-out date. In this case Mat1's stock will run out (no PldOrd, PR, etc) will be created, and from the date, when Mat1's stock runs out, MRP will calculate with Mat2.
As I told you, according to my best knowledge, you cannot realize this with different base unit of measures. (you have to change the buom of one of the related material masters or create a new material master if you cannot cope with buom-change).
Follow-up group scenario can also be used but I guess different buoms will be a problem in that case as well.
Maybe there are better solution but I'm not aware of it...
