Issue with Alternate unit of measure

Here in my production client which creating a material in April they have created with Base unit of measure = G and alternate unit of measure = EA
! EA = 60G....But actually they should have maintain 1 EA = 50g....Lot of docs got posted from April onwards...
Movement types posted were 641,561, 562,101,102,601,653
Now is there any possiblity to rectify it????

Basically you need to correct your material master and then adjust the quantity with a physical inventory as Manoj already suggested.
However, you should at least check each movement related to sales  like the 641, 601 and 653 movements if it was done in the alternative unit or in the base unit . MB51 can give you this info in the detailed report.
you then have to analyze if you billed too much or too less to your customer.
This should then be rectified before you adjust your inventory, because you may get even more problems with posting if you get a  customer complaint or a return which need to be posted with the old incorrect conversion ratio. Otherwise you may have to adjust your inventory a second time after such event ocurs.

  • BOM with alternate unit of measure

    Hello team
    Is it possible to create the BOM with alternate unit of measure ?
    Thanks
    JJ

    Hi,
    Not possible to create BOM by item material with alt unit of measure.
    If you want to use other UOM in production, use issue unit in work scheduling view.
    If you want to procure use order unit in purchasing view.
    For selling use sale unit in sales view.

  • Stock display with Alternate unit of measure

    Hi All,
    is there any report in SAP, which displays the warehouse stock with Alternate Unit of measure. I did try in MB52. It was showing only in BUM. Please help ASAP.
    Ayesha

    Hello Ayesha,
    We had the same requirement. So we copied MB52 to ZMB52 and added a new selection for the AUM. Additional coding was also done for the UoM conversion.

  • Variable issue 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.

  • Material upload: alternate unit of measure problem

    Hello,
    I'm uploading materials using LSMW (BAPI nethod: BUS1001006). I have a problem for the records with alternate units of measure. I put the units in a separate file and map the ISO code and the Numerator. However, I receive an error M3333 for the materials with 2 rows (one basic UoM and other alternate), which says that I have to maintain conversion factors for the alternate UoM. I thought, I'm doing so by providing Numerator (E1BP_MARM-NUMERATOR), but somehow it's not enough.
    Any assistance will be highly appreciated
    Thanks in advance,
    Eli

  • Alternate Unit of Measure with several Qty KF's

    Case is as follows:
    3 different plain KFs related to qty. Sales volume, net weight anddelivery qty.
    All need to be dispalyed in the same report. All have different base unit of measure.
    I have only one variable [YTAUNIT) for entering required unit.
    Now if I enter all KFs using this same YTAUNIT variable for them each separately I get error message on the query that this is not permitted.
    How should I change the structure ?
    - add new variable for each KF ? (YTAUNIT1, YTAUNIT2, .....) -> do I need to change any of the ABAP codes? is there a link only picking YTAUNIT ?
    Please can You give me an example (detailed) how to proceed ?
    Thanks in advance
    Petri

    Hi,
    I have worked on single variable But from the understanding of working I feel you need to create three diff variable (input var) YTAUNIT1, YTAUNIT2 ect Because they are on same base unit of measure with different units of measures. And you will have to take corresponding variable for every key figure in the calculated KF.
    Just try with different variables.
    Assign points if it helps.

  • ME51N : how to deal with different units of measure as defined in MM01?

    Hi Folk,
    Could you please help me ?
    Some of our materials booked in stock are purchased by our purchasing department in Europe but as well by our purchasing department in US.
    The base unit of measure of those materials are defined with KG (kilogram) in the masterdata file (MM01).
    Why this is not allowed to enter a purchase requisition (ME51N) with other unit of measure than KG?  My purchasing department in US is not able to work with kilogram and thus they need to enter the requisition with US units of measure (pounds).
    However when we create purchase orders, we can play with other units of measure.
    Does someone can explain to me how to create a PR with a unit of measure different from the default one?  Or could you share your experience to bypass this issue.  Note that we really would like to have the same material number both for Europe and US (with different plants and storage locations).
    Thank you very much!
    François.

  • Conversion of alternate unit of measurement

    Hi,
    System will not allow to enter conversions of unit of measurements in decimal points. But is there any configuration or method, we can force system to accept conversions of unit of measurements in decimal points only? (For example 2.5kg = 1pc, base unit of measurement is 'PC' and alternate unit of measurement is 'KG')
    Regards,
    Sattuj

    Hi,
    For the given example of Alternate conversion you can use the following setting :
    2.5 Kg = 1 Pc
    Put the Values as :
    25 Kg = 10 Pc
    With this the objective of Decimal is achieved.

  • 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.

    Ask your ABAP Team to write BDC or LSMW program.

  • Issue: Proportion/produciton unit of measure NO is invalid for item 900001.

    Hi All,
       Issue: Proportion/produciton unit of measure NO is invalid for item 900001.
    Here we have MTO Scenario: In outbound delivery when we do batch split & batch determination we are getting the above error.
    Consider the following settings: at MM01 - Prodution/Proportion unit data is maintained with a characterstic specific to batch. Means Batch specific unit of measurement. In Work scheduling view produciton unit, unit of issue are maintained as 'NO'. All these settings  are same for all material codes.
    Please suggest us why we are getting the issue for perticular material coce.
    Info: We resolve the issue by adding one more line item in the sales order & do the transfer posting the stock from line item to line item. But this is not the permanent solution.
    Regards
    Chowdary

    I believe the error message no is VL 382 (Proportion/product unit of measure & invalid for item &)
    You need to double click on the error message flashing on the status bar to get the error number.
    I believe long text for the error message is self explainatary. Refer it and make necessary changes to resolve the issue.
    Diagnosis
    You want to use a proportion / product unit for an item.
    You are not allowed to change the unit of measure into a proportion / product unit if:
    - The following exist for a sales document item:
    Preceding documents
    Subsequent documents
    - You are processing a scheduling agreement for the component supply industry
    - You change the target unit of measure in a scheduling agreement item (and the sales unit is not a proportion / product unit)
    - You are processing a customer requirements plan
    - The following exist for a delivery item:
    Preceding documents
    Subsequent documents
    Batch split items
    - You are processing a batch split item
    Procedure
    Use a different unit of measure.
    If you want to change the target unit of measure into a proportion / product unit in a scheduling agreement item, you need to change the sales unit accordingly. The system then sets the target unit of measure to the same as the sales unit.
    Further, if you are working on older version, refer SAP Note 364206 - VLSP:indic.for proportion/product quantities deletd.

  • Create STO with order unit of measure

    Hello,
    Is there a way to create Plant to plant STO with ordering unit of measure? Based on our customization we are not able to use Unit of issue from supplying plant and we also cant have base unit of measure in the STO.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    thanks!

    Hi,
       Please refer the KBA:  1980679 - Why the field 'Unit of Issue' of the supplying plant is taken in STO?  which explains the standard design. The unit of issue in the supplying plant has the highest priority in case of intra company STO and there is no configuration option to change it as of my knowledge. If you need to alter the standard behavior, you may check the feasibility of development. You may check the BAdI: ME_PROCESS_PO_CUST

  • ALternate Unit of Measure as a Order unit in PO

    Hi everyone,
    I have a problem while ordering the Quantity in PO with alternate unit which is maintained in MMR. The problem is
    in MMR, I have maintained EA as the UOM and PAC as the Alternate unit of measure.
    while in PO, i am trying to give the 'Order Unit (OUn) as the PAC which is the alternate unit maintained. But it is not accepting and
    again reverting back to EA. i couldnt find out the solution. But some POs for that material is already ordered as PAC unit.
