                can anyone tell me how we maintain different unit of measures for sales and purchasing for a article.base unit of measure,order unit,var unit.Hope for a good answer.
Regards

Hi,
Go to MM42, select basic data view
In,Units of measure/ EANs /dimensions sub tab
there u can see four radio buttons
B.Un    Unit of measure is base unit (used internally only)
O.Un    Unit of measure is the order unit                             - Purchasing
D/L.Un Unit of measure is delivery unit/issue unit              - Logistics
S.Un    Unit of measure is the sales unit                             - Sales
for eg:
First line enter EA (each) or PC (piece) in Auom for a material and enter 1 in Number and select radio button for B.Un
Second line enter CT (carton) in Auom and enter 10 in Number and select radio button for O.UN (when you creating a PO it UOB automatically picks as CT)
Third line enter PALin Auom and enter 50 in Number and select radio button for D/l .UN (when u creating a delivery UOB picks as PAL ie pallets)
Fourth line enter EA or PC and enter 1 in Number and select radio button for S.UN (when u creating a Sales order UOB picks as EA or PC as u defined)

Maintain different unit of measure at operation level

Hi,
1. Routing can be created for one header unit of measure only
2. But in the routing we can have different "Operation Unit"
3. In the routing in the operation details there is a unit of measure conversion details
1 header unit = 1 operation unit
4. In your case you need to maintain this which can solve your problem.
Kindly let me know if this is useful or if it doesnt work we can find alternate solution for the same.
thanks

How to maintain Two Unit of Measure on One Item?

Hi Experts,
good day!
An item can be purchased either in Metric ton or Kgs. but maintain an inventory UoM in Kg only. What step do I need to consider, aside from creating a UDF.
Since, I can see only one conversion in item Master data, 1 Metric Ton = 1,000 kg... ( Purchasing UoM= Metric Ton) , What if my client wanted to purchase an item in Kg? The system can only viewed metric ton, how about the kg? Please help me on his matter... Thanks and God bless.
Regards,
Mari

Hi Mari,
In marketing document, you may select different Base Units for the item to utilizing two UoM.

Different unit of measurement

Hi
For the material a85.52.02.1121, when I see material document list(MB51),material movement showing different UOM( M & FT).
For material movement 261 it is showing 2- (qty) FT
movement 262 it is showing 2(qty) FT,
But for movement type 561 it is showing 2 (qty) M.
But we maintained in the material master,UOM & alternative unit of measure as 'M' only.
my question is
From where this FT unit of measurement is coming?
Any tips to solve this problem?
With Regards,
Jaheer(abaper + MM consultant)

Hi,
Check the Unit of issue at plant data storage location 1 of the MMR, I suppose its with FT,
Other wise too as both M and FT are standard UOM's,with a standard conversion, you can enter a different unit of measurement apart from the base unit maintained in the MMR during the transaction (261/262), which will get automatically updated in the inventory.
Trust this clears your query

Different unit of measurements work independently

Hi SAP MM Experts
Is there any possibility to work with 2 different unit of measurement at a time in sap which need to be independent from each others mean no relation b/w 2 uom.
My client is a steel manufacturer. When a bar (steel rod) received from vendor, they want to enter in system with uom as KG and bundle and same thing will be control in all possible good movement. even in sell, they want to control with 2 unit on measurement. pls guide me. thanks

You can maintain two uom for material, You can purchase this material with two uom. But material can only stored in warehouse with base unit of measure. You can also sale the material with two unit.
For using different uom in purchasing have a look into the docu Create Info Record for different Order Unit

WM MF60 different unit of measure

Hi all.
I am trying to move material from raw material warehouse (managed in WM) into production warehouse (not managed in WM). In production warehouse production order exists for manufacturing.
For transferring components between both warehouses I am using MF60 trasaction.
There are some materials that are consumed in one unit of measure (ST) but transferred in another one (CRT). Although the requirement is to transfer 1 unit for one production order, one box (containing 60 units) will transferred and this will cover the production of the next 60 production orders.
For this purpose I maintain WM unit of measure including CRT and as base unit of measure ST but the 311 movement is made based on ST unit of measure and so the TR and TO.
Did I miss any customizing? Should I use the issue unit of measure, not enough with WM unit of measure?
Many thanks in advance and best regards.

Unit of measurement in project system

Hi Experts,
Its relevant to PS module. Base unit of material is KG whereas sales unit is M2 and conversion is maintained between both. Now I am using sale unit (M2) while entering material componenets in project. Then I am raising PR, PO, GR in project and withdraw the material in sale unit M2. But system updates the report in KG (under purchasing data tab in project). When I get material report, system shows reqmt qty in M2 but received qty in KG. Its confusing and doesn' serve the reporting purpose. Can we do something so that received and withdrawn qty will appear in M2 (sale unit) rather than KG (base unit)?
Regards
Dinesh Chauhan

Hi,
You inventory is maintain always in base unit of measure.
You can maintain different unit in material master like,
Order unit(Purchasing view) : - For Purchase Order
Unit of issue(Plant data1) : - For issue material.
You can see material stock in both unit of measure in MMBE.
After enter material code you can see material stock, by changing material unit of measure you can also saw material stock in specific unit of measure.
Maintain Order unit of measure in purchasing view and also active variable active unit( Enter 1 = active) in purchasing view

Unit of measure in the Special purpose ledger .

Unit of measure in the Special purpose ledger .
The sales invoice posted in to the system is having two unit of
measure fields.
a. Base unit of measure - which is getting into BESG_MEINS AND
BSEG_MENGE (Example data EA and 120)
b. Unit of entree - Which is getting into BSEG_ERFME AND BSEG_ERFMGE
(Example data (CS and 10)
In special purpose ledger we like to see base unit of measure
consistanty for all the doucments.
but we found that in special purpose ledgers values under base unit
of measure are colleted from unit of entree fields.
I verified the fixed field movement configuration where our special
purpose ledger fields are receiving from fields "MEINS and MENGE" of
sender table which is base unit of measure.
but the figure inside it is from Unit of entree which is from ERFME
and ERFMGE.
Please advise us how to get Base unit of measure values consistantly
for all the documents.
your help is highly appreciated.
thanks
Rathanraj

these assignments can only be deleted logically in the corresponding transactions for processing the routings.For the user, they are no longer displayed, but they still exist in the database.The material master can only be changed after the routing has been reorganized.
please read OSS Note 60386 - Deleting the material allocation to routings
it has an alternative solution to archiving

How to maintain open change request control for the transaction MM02 & CS02

hi all...
can any one please let me know that, is there any BADI or Enhancement spot
where i can code for my desired functionality...
how to maintain open change request control for the transaction MM02 and CS02.
Desired Functionality:
The user wants to maintain a material, bill of material or a document.
On the initial screen of the respective transaction (MM02, CS02)
user enters a change request number.
The system checks whether the object record that the user wants to maintain
is already assigned to other change request numbers.
If this is the case, the system displays a warning, stating that there are
other open change requests for this master data record.
In addition, the system lists the relevant change request numbers.
The user can continue the maintenance or leave the transaction and first check
the mentioned change requests.

hi satish thanks for reverting back
but sorry yaar given enhancement is not triggering...
but my requirement is:
- after executing the transaction MM02 & CS02.
- user inputs the data for Material Number and then he enters the Change Number.
- if the given Change Number is not maintained with the Material (i dont no
where/how this two fields are maintained internally), then it has to raise a
warning and it should list the existing Change Numbers for that perticular
Material.

HT1379 Summary: how to transfer files from SD card when the system (Mac OS X v 10.7.5) will NOT recognize SD cards.

How to transfer files from SD card when the system (Mac OS X v 10.7.5) will NOT recognize SD cards?
Insert the SD card.
System opens iPhoto with SD contents.
Want to transfer files from SD card to system drive. iPhoto closes
SD card directory removed from the Finder window and is not available again.
I don't want to have to reboot the system every time I want to perform this option.
What's wrong here.
The support columns show this isn't an isolated incident with all sorts of solutions possible.
This is a simple task - there should be a simple method for the system to recognize SD cards.
What's the answer?
I've reviewed a recommendation to reset the SMC.
https://discussions.apple.com/message/18500187#18500187
and
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
and another thread that says, basically, you must buy extra hardware to perform this simple task,
https://discussions.apple.com/message/16911326#16911326
another one that has the same problem with OS Mountian Lion,
https://discussions.apple.com/message/21919740#21919740
another one with the problem that says SD cards can't be read by Apple unless the card is formatted specifically for Apple, ie. that Apple is not compatible with other cards, but the problem maybe something else that requires Apple service - (bad SD card reader?).
https://discussions.apple.com/message/18711818#18711818
there are probably more discussions, but I dont' want to spend my entire sunny in Seattle day working this.
thanks for the help!

When I plug in an SD card, the finder window shows it under the DEVICES section. At this point, I can drag the contents to the hard drive. However, when I screw up and click the character on the right side of the name - it apparently closes the SD card and I can't find any command to reload or re-recognize the card. I have to remove and reinsert the card and then sometimes it recognizes the card. Other times I reboot and it will recognize it.
What does that character on the right side of the SD card name do? Is it an eject function - with no way to subsequently reread the drive?
It ejects or unmounts the card. When the SD card mounts click on it once to highlight it and then drag the files shown within it to the new folder.
