Is it possible to manage 3 units of measure (not just 2) using IS CWM

Our customer requirement is to handle the stock in 3 different units of measure.
We have read that with the EHP7 CWM (Catch Weight Management) this is possible but we are not sure if it's possible with 3 units of measure.
If not any other alternative?
Many Thanks

CWM supports only one parallel unit of measurement as the valuation unit of measure. It however allows adding several unit of measure as in standard ERP system.
Hope this helps.

Error while creating PO -- Unit of measure not defined for lanuage ZH

Hi all,
i have created the PR with EA as UOM. Then while creating PO, i am getting error like
' Unit of measure not defined for lanuage ZH' .
Then I execute CUNI
Then menu is GOTO > Translation > units of measure
enter source language and target language . After this i am getting the below message
---> Language not available on server
Please suggest what i should do. Thanks.
Thanks

HI Pabi,
Go to material master for material in purchase requisition, the Go to Additional data and maintained language as ZH in material master data.
Also the other possibility, that if in your case purchase requisition are converted to purchase orders through background jobs,
then check the background job execution in SM37 whether that background job has been triggered twice parellely in the background, which could have resulted in locking of same purchase requisition at same time and hence your are getting the Error.

Unit of measure not defined for language ZH

Hi,
We were creating a PO when we encountered the error which states "Unit of measure not defined for language ZH".
We executed CUNI to translate the units of measurement to our target language. System prompted "This object was segmented. Only new lines evaluated." What does this mean?
We tried creating the PO again, however we encountered the same error that the unit of measure was not defined for the language.
Please recommend action/s that we should take. Thank you.

Take a look at the below threads. Your problem has the solution.

QM_Change of base unit of measure not possible

Dear QM Experts,
Scenario is,
1.     Material master created with QM view activation.
2.     The Base Unit of Measure kept as EA
3.     Inspection plan prepared for material with usage 5 and status 4.
4.     Material has not undergone any purchase order / production order / routing or any other transactions except inspection plan.
5.     No movements have done and the stock is zero
6.     The requirement is to change Base Unit of Measure from EA to KG
When tried through MM02 system throws an error message as The base unit of measure cannot be changed; choose "Display errors" Message no. M3189
When viewed through log another information gets displayed as Routings already exist that are assigned to the material. Task list type Q.
I tried through trial and error method. First material assignment was deleted from task list, problem did not resolve. Thereafter deletion flag put to task list. No impact. At last entire task list deleted. Still system does not allow changing unit.
Has anybody faced the same problem ever? Whether deletion of task list (By T-Code QSR6) from data base will server the purpose? What are the obligations that one must follow while execution QSR6?
Or if there is any other solution to this requirement?
Thanks in advance
Best Regards,
Anand Rao

Hi
*What are the obligations that one must follow while execution QSR6?*
By this T code Deletion is very much possible provided that
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) 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).
If no purchase requisitions, purchase orders, or scheduling agreements exist for the material
Material Is used in any task list/Rauting.
Now as per your schenario I hope you have checked Inspection lot & PR,PO.
Error showing Q type of task list.
Go to PLKO & MAPL table for this material & group & Gr counter check the entry.
Check deletion Indicator in both the tables. If it has status "X" then this task list is very much possible to delete through QSR6.
I hope this will add some value to your Execuation.

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!!

Maintaining Unit of Measure (not alternative)

Dear colleagues,
I need to maintain a unit of measure (1 BOT is equal to 45 DEG) where we are going to use it for Z programsu2019 calculations, not in standard functions. But I don't want to maintain this ratio under additional data  units of measure because if I maintain then there is possibility of being use this new measure in sales ordersu2019 etc. Is there any other field where I can maintain this ratio without infecting standard calculations?
Regards

I would suggest you need to put logic in Zprogram.When ever program finds this UOM it will automatically converts and will update in sheet.
Maintain UOM convertion in a Z table.This will help if you want to add some more UOM it is use ful to you.While running in Z report it will fetch the convertion from table .

BOXI 3.0 Units of Measure not coming over to universe based on Infoset

We are noticing that the Unit of Measure for Infoset based query objects are not coming over with the base install of the SAP integration Kit. However, it does seem to work after fixpack 2. Can anyone confirm this?

Hi Mark,
we had a separate thread on this already - or ?
for Universes on top of Web Intelligence it has been identified as an issue.
For Universes on top of InfoCubes it works fine.

Converting Unit of Measure (not quantity)

Hello All,
I have an interesting issue that I am not sure how to address. I have done some searching online and through the forums on how to convert unit of measure. Nearly all of the returned entries pertained to converting FT to LB, and scenarios like that.
My issue deals with the data in the EORD table. I created a custom program to create/update numerous source lists using a BDC for transaction ME01. This way the user can enter numerous materials and plants into one program one time, rather than create each source list individually. One such source list has a value in field MEINS as GAL (Gallon). However this is the converted value, this can be viewed in SE16n. If I use SE16, or debug the program, I can see the value in MEINS as GLL. This is the unconverted value. Thus when I create the source list I get an error.
I was wondering if there was a function module I could use to convert the UoM. I know I could create logic to check the value of UoM and if it is incorrect to change it using a custom FM or even in the logic of the enhancement itself. But this could change over time, meaning more units could be added requiring more logic changes. If there was a standard FM I could use, I could implement it once and be done with it.
So does anyone have any advice or know of an FM I could use? I will continue to search for an answer and if I find one I will post. If my question is confusing please let me know and I will clear up anything I can.
Thanks for your help in advance.
Regards,
C.

Why will my units of measure not change

I have an old ai file created in CS5 and am opening in CS6 is comes in with cm even though I have changed the units of measure with the file open and also with no files open. Yet every time I open the file it is still in cm. Any ideas?

Hi Jacob,
Tried that already no go. Have tried changing with no documents open, with documents open saved as CS6. All my other files seem fine but this one will not update.
Thanks

Why will firefox not start on my laptop? can't uninstall or open the profile manager either. it simply does not run. it used to work fine until i had to restore my system.

had firefox 4.0 & have been a user of firefox for a few years now. never had any problems. had to do a system restore after my computer detected a virus of some sort & i couldn't do anything. the virus kept popping up a bogus add for me to buy an antivirus program. had to restart laptop in safemode to initiate the restore. ever since then firefox has not opened. can't even uninstall it or open the profile manager. anything that has to do with firefox will simply not run/open at all. i'm stumped.

System restore can cause problems as well as solve them, it has probably completely mucked up your Firefox installation.
Try deleting your Firefox installation directory, the default location on 32 bit Windows is C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\
Now re-install Firefox, it should pick up your current profile folder so you should not lose your bookmarks, passwords etc.

Possible to physically downsize images in flash - not just by compression?

I create a lot of banner ads for my work and they vary in small and superlarge sizes with product/price info. We recently upgraded to CS 5.5. and I am now working on setting up my workflow as a project to be more efficient.
The smallest banner is 300x95 and the biggest is 980x500 - just to demonstrate the size difference. They should both have the same productinfo inside and I would love it if I could have one assetfile for all product info - including the product image - but because of the obvious banner filesize issues I can't just drop a 500px tall image into the assetfile and use this on all bannersizes because even if I scale it down in the smaller banners Flash will still export it as a 500px tall image.
Is there any way in Flash to physically downsize the file when scaling it? I haven't seen this anywhere inside Flash, so I don't think it is possible.. but maybe with an extension that I don't know about..? *hopeful*

i'm not sure what you're wishing for. if your various banners had the same aspect ratio, you could reasonably hope for a one project app that could be adapted to the various banners. but with differing aspect ratios, it doesn't seem likely that there's a consistant way to resize the assets from one banner to another.

Possible to manage the MobileMe galleries made by iPhoto using Aperture3?

I am considering moving my whole library from iPhoto to Aperture.
I understand that I can import the whole iPhoto library, but is it also possible to manage the existing MobileMe galleries made by iPhoto using Aperture3, without changing the current URLs of the gallery?
Thanks.

I'd like some info on this also.
Currently I have iphoto publishing photos to Facebook, Mobileme and Flickr. I have imported my iphoto library but none of these folders have imported. Is there a clever way of transferring these over to Aperture (3) such that my mobilem is unaffected as is my Flickr and facebook.
Aperture 3 already see's my mobileme and I posted a new album to mobileme from Aperture wondering if that would force it to download the other albums on there already but it didn't. You would think there is a way to do this. Otherwise if I have to delete the links in iphoto to facebook and then repost them from Aperture they will show as completely new uploaded photos when a lot of them are years old and at a guess it will re-tag all my contacts who will all think there are new photos of them.
Likewise will all my flickr comments be lost in the above process and will I effectively be starting from scratch again?
Any thoughts, ideas, help and guidance would be very much appreciated. I'd like to get away from using both iphoto and Aperture to just using Aperture 3 now it has all the additional functionality of faces that I like to use.
Thanks

Dual unit of measure

Dear Gurus,
Is it possible to maintain dual unit of measure for a material in ECC 6. Meaning there should be 2 unit of measures, without any conversion factor.
This is a requirement of a diamond company which wants to maintain the stocks in Pieces as well as Carats.
Regards,
SSR

Hi,
You can only have one base unit of measure and any number of of UOMs with conversion factors. But in your case the number of carats do not relate to the UOM of each.
You do not need to use carat as a UOM.
I would suggest that you use classification and allocate a characteristic of carat.
Then each material master record can have whatever UOM that is relevant (each, piece etc.) but you can have the number of carats stored in the classification view of the material master.
If each individual item can have different carats then you might want to consider batch management. That way each diamond can have a different number of carats and you would use a unique id as the batch number.
But you basic question of having multiple unrelated UOMs is not possible.
P.S. If you want to give any award in DIAMONDS instead of points then I am sure that we would all accept this (smile)
