EDI unit of measure issue

One of our customers orders a product in unit measure EA (each). Our stock-keeping unit is PL (pail). The output does get processed and issues message:
"PL is not assigned to an ISO unit of measure (item 000001, field VRKME)".
Even if I updated the table for PL, I'm almost certain it will be rejected by our customer because their system is expecting the line item to have unit of measure "EA".
I would appreciate suggestions as to how to address this issue.
Thank you,
bak

Hello,
In the SPRO --> IMG --> General Settings , you have measurement units setting. in this you have ISO code maintenance. Check whether PL is assigned here.

Unit of measure issue

Dear friends,
issue : for Unit of measure EA , decimal is allowed. i.e in sales order or PO system will allow 10.334 EA . I need it without Decimal.
issue resolution status: I have maintained NO decimal in T code CUNI for UOM EA. But till sytem allows Decimal . I tried with Fresh PO, SO, MB1C etc .
Please help me to resolve .

HI
In CUNI under Display area for Decemial Places see what is the valid number range maintained .
I think it is 0-14 , then input 0 instead of NO and try again

Unit of measure issue in Product Category Units Quota Planning

Hi experts,
My client needs to maintain quota for salespersons based on R/3 product hierarchy level. (1000 kg of Product Hierarchy Level 01234 per month, 2000 KG of Product Hierarchy Level 56789 per month, vs.). R3PRODHIER is the category assigned to Sales application.
So in Quota Planning, sub-assignment block Product Category Units, I want to maintain quotas. I press Add button, mark the Hierarchy level I'd like to plan quota to, and press Choose button, but "Unit of Measure" field does not fill up. Surprisingly, in the dropdown list, there is not an option which I can select (i.e. 'KG'). The list is empty, even after I fill Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q4 values. So, I am not able to use the quota planning functionality.
Any ideas why this is happening and how to fix it?
Thanks for your time,

Hi Kivanc,
I see exactly one year ago (almost to the minute) you posted this solution.
I am having exactly the same issue as you had. I also assumed the problem lay in ECC with unit of measure having to be defined at that same level.
I have asked our SD team about this and they are not maintaining units of measure at higher levels of the hierarchy, only on the product itself.
Our units of measure will be EA, TO, KG
So how do I get around this? I don't completely understand what you have explained in your solution.

Unit of measure issues

Hi.
I have a material with UOM issue. I have to change the unit of measure for a material.I removed all the stock for the material but it still says stock exist in the previous period. i removed all the stock and its empty in MMBE. but still its giving me the same error.
how to solve this.

To remove stock from previous period, you can enable posting in previous period using MMRV transaction and then post a cycle count or scrapping transaction to remove the stock. Ensure that the posting date of this transaction is in the previous period.

Third party purchase unit of measure issue.

Hi Friend,
I have created sales order for third party process unit of measure in sales order is in Meter qty is 3.7 mater.
But PR & PO id created in the unit of measure Piece i.e. 3.7 pieces.
GR is already done for qty 3 pieces. Now when user is trying to do GR for qty 0.7 pieces we are getting error message serial number management allows only whole number.
How can I do GR for this. Also I want to know what setting I need to do to have PO in unit of measure M i.e. Mater.
Thanks,
Kiran

Its all about your material master unit of measure.
In Material master - Basic data 1 view - Base Unit of measure will be picked in PR.
In Material master - Purchasing - order Unit will be picked in PO (If blank, then base unit of measure)
In Material master - Sales Organization 1 - Sales unit will be picked in Sales Order.
And for your error message, please search in SCN, you will get many thread regarding the error.

Base Unit of Measure issue

Hi Experts,
As per the scenario, my client is manufacturing a rod whose std length is 6m. But, he is selling it in other sizes also like 4.3, 5.5 so on. So, the price should be get calculated on length & no of pieces.
As, per my understanding I had put base unit of measure as meter & sales unit as ea. Conversion rate has been maintained as 1ea=6meter. But, then as he is selling it in different sizes also. How to calculate price in such condition. Please throw some light on it.
Regards,
Prashant

hi
i am not expert
based on b knowledge
when you fix the unit of measure 1ea=6m , based on this system will pick the quantity , you raise the sale order for each then system will take meters like 1ea=6m,
you requirement it 4.3.5.5 m , so you can change the unit of measure for particular material , like 1m =1m , then system will take correct quantity , and based on this system will take price , your pricing is manual or automatic , when manual no problem , automatic you maintain , quantity based price ,
you can change the unit of measure for material at mm02 , at additional data, you can maintain
please try this

Base unit of measure issue during CIF

Hello,
we have one APO system which is connected to two R/3 systems (System A and System B).
Actually one product number was coming years ago from System A with base unit of measure EA.
We now need to add the same product number (with a different Business system group) via CIF coming from system B, but the source base unit of measure is ST.
CIF interface stops with error "Error Text: Base unit of measure for product xxx" ....
So actually I am looking for a way to add product xxx to the integration model in System B and transfer data to the APO system without removing the products and all linked master and transaction data from APO and creating new data.
Maybe there is a workaround ...
Thanks for any ideas and thoughts.
Kind regards,
Andrea

Andrea
One way is to add ST as alternate unit of measure in APO product master . This is because you cannot change the base unit of measure in APO without deleting all the dependent objects.
After that you will be able to CIF over the data . But then you have to remember one thing . Whenever you change the material master for this material in R/3 and CIF it over , the alternate UOM ST will get wiped out in APO and you have to maintain it manually.
Thanks

Unit of Measure issue - Need to be changed from volume to no dimention.

Hi Experts,
           I have a unit of measure as TB, which is tube. This is a volume unit. The user want to change this as "Pls have this be corrected as a non-dimensional unit of measure ". For this what is impact on system.
          Precautions to be taken to change this unit of measure. what are all we have to do. like closing all open POs, PR, RFQ,SO , production order, planned orders etc.
          And what about the stocks for these materials which are using these UOM.
          Please suggest me, what are all we have to do, before going for a change.
Thanks & Regards,
Poorna.

Dear,
The base unit of measurement for a material cannot be changed due to movements history exists. This will result to inconsistency in reports and data.
Suggested to create similar new material with new user desired UOM.
Please find the SAP HELP on this as below:
Diagnosis: You wanted to change the base unit of measure. However, you can do so only under certain circumstances, including the following:
- If there are no stocks of the material in the current period and in the previous period.
- If there are stocks in the previous period, you can clear them as follows:
a) Post the stock in the previous period to the current period (for example, using movement type 561 Posting date 30.06.XX ) so that the stock for the previous period is the same as the stock for the current period.
b) Clear the stock with the posting date in the previous period (for example, using movement type 562 Posting date 30.05.XX).
- If no purchase requisitions, purchase orders, or scheduling agreements exist for the material.
Procedure : Choose Display errors to see why you cannot change the base unit of measure for this material.
The pushbutton Display errors appears only in dialog mode, not in data transfer or in mass maintenance. If this message appears in data transfer or in mass maintenance, and you want to know why the base unit of measure cannot be changed, access the material in dialog mode using the relevant transaction below, try to change the base unit of measure as required, and then choose Display errors:
Lastly, you can considered an Alternate Unit of Measure to do the Conversion from KG to Liter. You then could use your Alternate Unit of Measure as your
Purchased UoM and PLant UoM.
Given the level of activity sometimes required to change the base UOM, it often makes more sense just to add an alternative UOM on the material master.
Maintain the relationship between the Base UOM and the new UOM on the material master and then continue to procure the material in the new UOM rather than the base UOM. If stocks exist I would think it is unlikely that their existing UOM is incorrect as they must have been receipted in that UOM at some point.

Syed Hussain.

Unit o measure issue for blanket orders

I am trying to create a blanket order for cost center using catagory for blanket order. When I enter Unit of measure say "each" it replaces with "LE" and gives me an error- " Unit of measure LE not defined- please check your input" when I go into details of message - it tells me that " The key for the unit of measure you entered is not defined in table T006." and "Define the unit of measure through Customizing (Materials Management)."
next when I look for this table it tells me that this is not active. At this time I can not save the PR.
Can anyone tell me where is this config in MM?
Thanks for your help in advance
Raj

Hi,
If the UOM of LE is there you neeed to check what is in the commercial and technical col;umns for it.
In SAP the LE is the internal code for the UOM and NOT the one that is entered in transactions.
LE normally has a technical name of AU and it is AU that should be used in the UOM fields on requisitions and POs etc. NOT the LE.
Try using the UOM that is in the technical column of LE.

Unit of measure issue when PGI done through IDOC

Dear Experts
In my system PGI against outbound delivery is being done through inbound idocs in SAP. In my outbound delivery the sales unit is maintained as CS (Case) and BT (Bottle). The quantity in my delivery is 10 CS and 10 CS for both the line items. When IDOC is getting posted in SAP it has quantity as 10 in field LFIMG of segment E1EDL24 of IDOC type DELVRY07 for both the line items. We are not passing any unit in the field VRKME of segment E1EDL24 of the IDOC. The IDOC gets successfully posted but when I check the PGI document the it shows quantity as 0,417 CS and 0,0833 CS.
1 CS = 24 BT for material 10002616
1 CS = 12 BT for material 10002617
Base UoM for both the materials in the delivery is BT. What SAP is doing is converting the CS quantity in terms of base UoM. I have attached the PGI document and outbound delivery screenshot for reference.
After PGI the outbound delivery line item quantity changes as shown in the attachment.
Please let me know how to resolve this conversion issue so that I pass the same quantity as in my outbound delivery in IDOC and PGI should get posted with any change in quantity in my outbound delivery in terms of base UoM.
Thanks and Regards
Satish Kumar

Hello Sathish,
I have some information for you instead of solution.
First, Let me repeat my Understanding first,
Material Base UOM is BT.
But, Delivery Unit is CS. that I could see in Delivery Screen shot.
This Conversion will be carried to Delivery. We can see in Delivery item level that information.
Here the point that we need to remember is, Once the Delivery is created, the UOM will be carries down to Delivery tables ( LIKP, LIPS ). That means, For further Transactions, System uses the UOM which is carried down to the delivery.
So, During PGI, Delivery already with UOM CS, So, System posted the PGI in same UOM. But, When it comes to display, in your above screen shot, you can see both UOMs. i.e., UOM and Base UOM.
We have two lines here.
0.417 Qty and UOM as CS - First line - Because, your delivery is already in CS UOM.
10 Qty of Base UOM as BT - Second line - This is the conversion happened for PGI.
As of now, I do not see any issues with your delivery. It created UOM as CS. And, Posted UOM as CS.
I really do not understand the conversion issue that you have mentioned above. Now, Can you tell about your issue again.
For resolution, you need to run the fresh scenario again.
Regards,
Sathish

Unit of Measure issue in WM.

Hello All,
I have the below issue.
Philippines we have a manufacturing industry, For material A, 35 cases = 1 PALLET (Maintained in Basic data)and Unit of issue at the warehouse is CS.
COLOMBO we have a distribution center. For the same material, we use a different storage unit type (PL). where 42 cases = 1PL (Maintained at WM2 view)
We had created an OBD for 35 Cases in COLOMBO. Fallowed by transfer order.
In the transfer order, we get it displayed as 1 PAL. As 35 cases = 1PAL (Defined in Material master data, Basic view1)
So in the TO print out, we get Material to be shipped as 1 PAL. As defined already in WM2 view of COLOMBO market, 1PL = 42 cases.
So there is a chance of shipping extra cases. In our case 7 cases are shipped additionally by mistake.
I had changed the master data in WM2 view as 35 cases as workaround. But we need a permanent fix as 42 cases.
Note as it is an import material from Philippines, we are not allowed to change the basic data (35 cases).
Kindly help me in this case.
Thanks and Regards,
Pranesh

Hi Pranesh,
Manufacturing unit is in Philippians so when they send the pallet to COLOMBO they send only 35 CS per pallet but how come the pallet which are stored in COLOMBO warehouse are having 42 CS per pallet
- Do you procure material A externally in COLOMBO which is having 42 CS per pallet
- After unloading the shipment from Philippians (at Colombo WH) before final putaway you physically transfer additional 7 CS on a pallet which is already having 35 CS and then do the putaway
Your query is more Operational / Business rather then technical and it is very important to know when manufacturing unit send 35 CS per pallet how come the distribution center is having 42 CS per pallet for the same material
As far as TO form are concern, if it is a custom TO form you can always change the logic in your program to display the Qty in CS as well as PAL to avoid confusion and educate the warehouse person

Alternative unit of measure issue in PP in Food industry

Hi,
I want clarification regarding alternative units
here sales order unit is master cartons,,
production people will produce in pieces,,
we are applying 40 strategy here,,,,
so based on master cartons,,MRP will give planned orders in master cartons i think,, when we convert it into process order it should be in pieces. (can we get this by entering prod unit---PC,,,in work scheduling view)
i want to enter Yield in pieces in confirmation field,,, and i want to do GR in master cartons ...
is it possible to maintain production order qty in one unit and GR in other unit?
plz suggest me...

production order qty in one unit and GR in other unit?
Not possible
create a BUOM as carton for the material
and Production unit as PC
when you do GR system will take in PC
But when u see in MMBE or MB52 system will show in Carton only
