Hello, Prakash,
transaction MASS -> Object BUS1001"Material" -> table MARM "Units of Measure for Material", though it is usefull only for changes of conversion factors. Otherwise, it's time for LSMW/BatchInput/Catt, what ever you prefers.

How to report on Alternate Units of measure

Hi ,
I am trying to implement the unit conversion ..i have few basic questions..
1)Do we need to have the 0MAT_UNIT in the cube/ODS
2)for 0material do i specifically need the base unit of measure as unit for the attribute conversion factor..
How do i go ahead if my conversion factor has a different unit..
3)In my scenario i am trying to do unit conversion on a keyfigure which has unit as billing qty in SKU..Do I need to do anything different in this case in order to convert to a diff unit..
Had changed the code given in the how to do doc..The report gave all the values as zero.
Pl suggest.
Appreciate ur inputs.
Regards,
G.V

I am using BW 3.5 .
Loaded/activated both 0material and omat_unit.
0MAT_UNIT is not maintained in the ODS/CUBE.
The keyfigure i am trying to convert to alternate unit of measure is billing qty in SKU which has billing qty in SKU
as unit to that quantity..
The user input variable for alternate unit of measure is defined on the unit billing qty in SKU..
when i debug it is not processing through this loop..
IF i_step = 0 AND i_vnam = 'YUOMCNVF' AND i_iobjnm = '0MATERIAL'.
read material and base uom from variables
LOOP AT i_t_var_range INTO l_s_var.
CASE l_s_var-iobjnm.
WHEN '0MATERIAL'. l_material = l_s_var-low.
WHEN '0BASE_UOM'. l_base_uom = l_s_var-low.
ENDCASE.
ENDLOOP.
Pl advise..

How to Report on Alternate Unit of Measure

Hi All,
    We recently implemented SAP for our Canadian operations. The Canadians want to see all our custom and standard reports in Alternate units of measure ( KG's & Ltr's ) but our reports only display in Lbs & Gal's. We were able to change our custom reports but is there any setting that SAP provides for the standard reports/transactions to display Alt UoM. We don't want to rush in and start changing standard reports. I'm sure, lot of you faced this situation before.

hi,
use the FM UNIT_CONERSION_SIMPLE

check this code

Regarding Alternate Unit of Measure

Sir,
Is there a provision to create a material with an Alternate Unit of Measure apart from the Barse Unit of Measure?.
In this case what impact will the Alternate Unit of Measure have in the BOM?. How to configure the Alternate Unit of Measure of a Child Component in the BOM?.
Can anyone give a detailed explanation of the subject.
Regards,
R. Vijayakumar

Hi,
Use tcode MM01 and select Additional data field in top. In this select Unit of measure tab page.
Now enter the alt UOM with conversion factor.
In this case what impact will the Alternate Unit of Measure have in the BOM?.
In the BOM, you can assign only base unit. Alt UOM can not assign.
How to configure the Alternate Unit of Measure of a Child Component in the BOM?.
In the BOM, you can assign only base unit. Alt UOM can not assign.

Mass Maintenance of alternate unit of measures

Hi,
I have an issue wherein 2000 materials have been updated with wrong alternate unit of measures.
I have checked MM17 but it would allow only changes and not deletions.
Kindly advice,whether there is any other way of deleting AuM.
Thank you

Dear.
Ask your ABAP Team to write BDC or LSMW program.
This will help you.
Regards
Utsav

Mass Add of Alternate Unit of Measure

I'm looking for a transaction that will let me massively add to materials the same alternate unit of measure.
ANYONE?

I believe MM17 and using table MARM should allow you to upload alt. UOMs. I have not tried this before so definitely verify that in test first.

Variable for Alternate Unit of Measure

Hello Experts
I have implemented the soultion for reporting data in Alternate Unit of measure using the "How to..." guide provided at https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/b7b2aa90-0201-0010-a480-a755eeb82b6f
This solution involves creating a variable which prompts the user to enter the required unit of measure.
However I have a situation where I would like to create variable which is not input-ready and has a fixed value assigned to it without prompting the user. Moreover, I cannot modify the already existing input-ready variable as it is used in other Queries.
Does this involves creating a new user exit or modifying the existing user exit. If yes then can you please tell me how this can be done.
Thanks
Rishi

Hi Rishi,
You can follow any one the below procedure for solve your issue.
1. You can change the variable by removing the check box "Ready to input". But you mentioned that you used that variable in other queries also. So, I am not suggesting this.
2. You create a new variable same as the existing variable but with out selecting "Ready to Input" check box. Now when the user run the query, that variable will not be seen to the user. Now, we will see the customer exit, you assign new variable value to existing variable, before that you have to write a condition for checking the query name. If you are running the query which have the new variable then assign the variable value to old variable. This will solve your question.
I hope you understood this procedure. If you have any doubts let me know.

Patil.

Report Data in Alternate Unit of Measure

Hi
We are working on Unit of measure Conversion for this we are following How To.Report Data in Alternate Units of Measure document. We did all the steps as mentioned in the document still this is not working. All results are showing zeros with same units of key figure qty like EA, ROl, Boxes and so on. We want to convert this into Cartons and Pallets. My question is is there any thing we need to do which is not mentioned in this white paper.
For example maintaining Conversion Factor in R/3 side?
Do we need to add Conversion factor Key figure to Transfer Structure and Info cubes?
(Which is not mentioned in the white paper) if so which field we need to map this in Transfer Structure?
We are in Version 3.5
Thanks
Naga

Naga,
For your first question.....you can "maintain" different units of measure in 0MAT_UNIT, but at one time you can report on only one alternate unit.
For your second question, I have a feeling that it is the problem with your enhancement to the std SAP code which is mentioned in the How to Paper. After you have done the enhancements did you activate the programs again? If there is somebody with you who is good in ABAP just run this enhancement through him.
Also just make sure you have followed everystep in that how to document, including the query designer part of it.
According to the logic of that paper, if the alternate unit is not available, then it is supposed bring back data in base unit, it is not supposed to error out. Check your ehancement piece again.
Thanks

Order qty by alternate unit of measures

Hi All,
In casting senario I want to map follwing.
I have created a material having UOM as "g" i.e. grams and maintained a conversion factor in alternate unit of measure to convert it to "MM" i.e. milimeters. I have also maintained alternate unit of measure in work scheduling view. Now when I create the order its in MM which is correct but I want to restrict order qty to 500 mm.
Means if the requirement is generated for say 650 mm length then order qty should be 2 having 500 mm length each.
How do i do this? Please advise.
Regards,
UG

Dear ,
You can achieve the same by keeping Fixed Lot Size FX and keep the quantity as 500 in the same UOM at material master level -MM02. in MRP1
Or if you want that 500 mm is your Maximum Order Qty , then you can mention the same in Maximum Lot Size field in MRP1
Try and revert back
Regards

Alternate unit of measurement for quantity field in Report

Hi All,
I got a requirement like to populate alternate unit of measurement also in the report so how best i can do this when taking consideration of performance issues and all. I got few suggestions like to write a field routine in tranformations...
So guide me how best i can do this, if any code is required let me know the code also.
Eg. material...PP_Ingot has 2 units of measurement .....Ton & Each.
So i need to display Qty in both Tons and Each in the report.
Please suggest me .
Thanks
Srini.

Hi Gregory,
Thanks for the immediate reply.I was busy in some other issue so this is delayed.
I hav a key fig YLOSMENGE (inspection lot qty) in Base unit of Mea and mapped to r3 with losmenge and baseunit of mea.
Next i hav created a new kf ZLOSMENGE with unit of mea so i want to know how to map this with r3 field and with which unit.
So kindly suggest me.
Regards
Srini.

Alternate units of measure

Hi,
In order to implement the Alternate units of measure -
I need to implement user exit and activate enhancement RSR0001. In the description below is listed what to implement of includes. In the function group XRSR - I have added the code to the includes ZXRSRTOP and ZXRSRU01. These are both a part of the group. But the last one ZXRSRF01 is not in the include folder. I tried to create an include by right click on the include folder and choose create - I named it ZXRSRF01 and copied the code into it. But it is still not to be found in the XRSR function group and when I check the program the get_form call raises and error in the code of the include ZXRSRU01. How to get the include in the function group or is there another solution?

Report Data in to two alternate Unit of Measures

Hi
We Implemented "How to Report Data in to two alternate Unit of Measure". I have a question
1 Could we maintain Two alternate Unit of Measures for one Base Unit of Measure?
For example if Base unit is EA ( Each) we need to maintain this as CAR( Carton) and PAL ( Pallet).
Thanks
Naga

Hi Naga,
Are you talking about Qty Unit conversion. We can surely maintain CAR,EA,PAL and all. The Numerator and Denoms are maintained in T006. And accordingly the conversion happens.
Apart from that you can have your own customized Qty conversion using Transaction 'RSUOM'.
Lemme me know if this helps.

Reporting Data in Alternate Units of Measure

We have a requirement to report data in base unit of measure and also in pounds and kilograms. I have read the paper "How to Report Data in Alternate Units of Measure". My problem is that in our R/3 system the conversion from base unit of measure to pounds is maintained, but no conversion from base unit of measure to kilograms is maintained. In BW, I have 0MAT_UNIT for conversion to pounds but not to kilograms. For the solution to work, am I correct in thinking that the conversion to kilograms must exist in 0MAT_UNIT?
Also, the paper states that it is applicable to BW releases 2.0A to 3.1C. Those of you on BW 3.5 - is there new functionality or a different way of handling reporting in alternate units of measure?
Thanks for your help,
Gail Bodner

Gail,
Nothing new in 3.5 for UoM conversion. It will still have to be the way described in the How To paper.
Maintin the conversion in R/3. Also, Pounds to KG is a standard coversion - you can hard code it too. Issue in UoM conversion comes in where you cut across type of uints, i.e. from vol. to weight. Then additional information like density is needed but within the same area, it shouldn't be a problem.
Cheers

Hi Experts,
Urgently need your help,
I am creating LSMW.
Object: 0020
Method: 0000
Programme Name: RMDATIND
Program type: D
I want to upload multiple alternate unit of measure but could not do it. I have mapped alternate unit of measure as below. But when I am maitaing second alternate unit of measure its not working.
BMMH6-MEINH = MATL-MEINH_02.
TRANSFER_RECORD.
BMMH6-MEINH = MATL-MEINH_03.
Thankx in advance.

I have mapped fields as above and maintained the text file as below.
UMREN_02 MEINH_02 UMREZ_02 UMREN_03 MEINH_03 UMREZ_03
1000 G 1 1 TO 1000
Then only corrected field will be updated in material master additional data.
Thankx to all of you.
