Need Help in SAP Multiple UOM

Question

Dear Expert ,
                 Please provide solution for this scenario .as follows
One of my customer need dual inventory system for the same item . And the condition are below
* Granites Manufacturing company
* They want to maintain serial number for individual slap wise ( all the slap not equal length * Height * width )
* Invoice  should be in CBM (Cubic Meters )  only ( 1590.34 * 10000)
     With the above condition if we maintain the inventory UOM is CBM then we can't able enter serial number. For  example ...
Example-1
Item - A Serial Numbered Item and UOM in CBM
Now i am going to add Good receipt (test scenario) for Item - A ,qty  1590.34 CBM  while adding the document it will show "Cannot select serial numbers; fractional quantity exists in row 1" like this error. so we can't able to maintain serial number
Example - 2
the same item we are maintaining the UOM as "nos"  there is no problem with serial number . But while booking the invoice we can't able to book per CBM or SF (squre meter )  UOM it should be number only. same case we can't able to calculate the price according to the CBM .
""If u need any additional information let me know""
Please provide any solution for the process.
Thank you

Hi Sudhir,
Let me restate what I think your question is to see if I have the right understanding.  Your customer manufactures slabs of granite and they would like to be able to identify each slab individually, and to be able to transact in terms of Cubic Meters and/or Sqare Meters and/or "NOS" (I assume that means "numbers" or "units"?). This is complicated by the fact that each slab has different dimensions.  Is that basically it?  If so it sounds like a perfect opportunity to use batch specific UOMs.  With that functionality you can set up each slab as a batch and then define batch specific UOMs for each batch to account for the different dimensions.
Here is an article that I think does a good job of explaining how the functionality works:

I hope this helps.
