No alternative unit of measure specified

Hi,
We are encountering no alternative unit of measure specified upon confirming the process order in COR6. What might be the problem. The base unit of measure is properly maintained in MM. Base unit of measure is Btl and the unit of issue is case.
Hope you could help us.
Thanks

Hi
In the confirmation screen, in the yeild  unit field is there. open the field there and check whether you units are displayed there or not. If they are not defined there then open the table and update your units there

    You want the system to convert from the base unit of measure to an alternative unit of measure for the current material. However, this alternative unit of measure is missing.
    System Response
    The system cannot carry out the conversion.
    Procedure
    This is due to a program error that should not occur. Please contact your system(s) administrator.

  • LSMW - Alternative Unit of Measurement

    Hi,
    I'm dealing with something very very strange. 
    I'm trying to load the Alternative Unit of Measure for materials via a LSMW.
    I'm using the Standard Batch / Direct input Method
    Object               0020   Material master
    Method               0000
    Program Name         RMDATIND
    Program Type         D   Direct Input
    We need to have the conversion L & GAL and KG & LB.
    GAL & LB are loaded as first.  (This goes in very smoothly). These values are calculated with density.
    Afterwards I load L & KG. So I'm using the function DIMENSIONCHECK_CONVERTABLE to calculate the converted versions.
    So 90% loads like this, without any problem.  But 10% of it goes wrong... When I check try to load this manually with exactly the same number I calculated, I can save the material without any issue.  When I'm using the Job I get following issue: The alternative units of measure are inconsistent.
    How is this possible? And how can I solve this issue without doing it manually?
    Thanks!

    Hi Prasad
    In the Material Master - Sales org.1 view you have a field called Sales Unit.
    there you give the desired UOM and press Enter then you will get a pop up for Conv.factors:Unit of measure, here you have to give the Conversion of the Material UOM to Sales UOM.
    Ex. Material Measure is PC and Sales Measure is BOX
    You need to specify How many peacies will BOX consist of
    like 10 PC = 1 BOX like that you have to give in the Popup

  • How to make system consider Alternative unit of measure while creating BOM?

    Dear Experts,
    When creating a BOM, how do I make the system consider the alternative unit of measure if at the point of creating the BOM, I decide to use  the  component material  alternative unit of measure? The scenario is as follows:
    Header
    Material code is TK677, Base Unit of Measure is Litres.
    Components:
    Material code is RT677, Base Unit of measure is Litres.
    Material code is RV677, Base Unit of measure is Kilogram.
    When formulation is done in the laboratory, the components are weighed and measured in percentage weight. For example, 20% for first component (RT677)  and 80% (RV677) for the second component.
    To depict this, I maintain an alternative unit of measure of Kg  in the Material Master of RT677, and maintain the conversion factor (100kg = 116Litres) so as to enable me use Kg as unit of measure for material RT677 when creating the BOM.
    When creating the BOM, I enter Kg as unit of measure for material RT677, but gets the system error message ''Unit of measure KG not supported for material RT677 in plant NG00
    Message no. 29175''
    What do i need to do as I have already maintained Kg as alternative unit of measure? or which other better way should i handle this issue?

    Thanks a lot for your reply, it worked, it allowed me to create the BOM using Kg for component RT677. But the new challenge i am now facing is that when I try to create a process order copyiing this BOM, it gives me the same unit (Kg) for component RT677 whose base unit of measure is Litres.
    I actually want the process order to copy the BOM and use Litres  for component RT677 based on the conversion factor which I have maintained in the Additional Data window of the material master.
    The reason is that, the formulation done in the lab is measured in percentage weight, but this component weight is now scaled up to Litres when the component is pumped into the Blending Vessels as specified in their Blending Instruction.
    Please how do I ensure that when the master recipe is copied during creation of the Process Order, that the unit of measure will be the base unit of measure (Litres) despite the fact that I have used the alternative unit of measure (Kg) for this component during creation of the BOM.  
    Thanks

  • Creation of Inspection lot in Alternative Unit of measure

    Dear Guru,
    Our implementation is going on in a Tube manufacturing company where Base Unit is maintain  in KG & 100 % visual inspection is taken place & we accept or reject tube on Pieces. So how can we do this in SAP, Because in SAP Inspection Lot is created on Base Unit & UD (Stock Movement) also in base unit, How can we in corporate Alternative Unit of measure.

    Hi,
          1. give unit of conversion in MM basic data (Unit of measurement) say 1 kg = 10 pieces
           2. add unit of issue as a Pieces in MM QM view
            3. add in inspection paln Unit of measure as Pieces ( if possible )
    Now during stock posting  post the stock KG  and now see in stock MMBE by changing the UOm as a pieces you will get the stock in pieces and you can now issue the material in pieces too.

  • Adding Alternative Unit of measure as part of  attributte of material

    Hi gurus,
    In our source system each material has alternative unit of measure which contain info on converting the base unit of measure (CAR) to MT and PAL.
    I need to add this info as part of material attribute
    e.g.
    Material "A" 10CART = 1 PAL & 100CART = 1MT
    This information captured in MM table "MARM" with material code as the
    As part of 0MATERIAL_ATTR , i need to have additional field that capture the info as below
    CARTPAL = 0.1 (1/10)
    CARTMT = 0.01 (1/100)
    Please help to advice on how to enhance the extractor to cater the above requirement.
    Your help highly appreciated
    Thank you

    hi,
    According to me you can enhance the 0Material_attr to bring the required information from ECC.
    But before enhancing anything ask func consultant or business below ques.
    1) will these unit entry will get created in MARM for any material at the creation of material or it will get updated later on
    2) will this unit value get change for any material during its entire life
    If any of above que ans is yes then how wud u manage in transaction data if unit get changed.
    For that u need to apply feedback concept in transaction dso.

  • Alternative unit of Measure for variant material

    Dear All,
    Here is an interesting scenario,
    There is a naterial Billet with two variant characteristics length and size. and base unit of measure is TON. Now alternative unit of measure is PCS.  How can define the conversion factor on the basis of these two variant characteristics.
    In normal material (without variant char.)
    we can define conversion factor 1PCS= 2TON
    For variant material,
    For the material Billet with variant charc length and size how can i define conversion
    so that system calculates diff. PCS with diff. length and size but material is same. So how can i Do that.
    for example for same material Billet but variant char. Length is 6 M and size is 120*120 ,its wt will be 2 TON for 1 PCS.
    for the same material Billet with variant char. length 12 M and size 120*120, its wt will be 12TON for 1 PCS.
    How can i cater this for the same material.

    Hi Shoaib,
    We have faced the similar scenario for steel industry. Based on my experience, it is not possible to define variable values for Alternative UOM conversion with the variant characteristic/configuration, specially if you want SAP to maintain inventory with variable conversion rate.
    Use the Batch specific unit of measure for this situation.
    1) Create batch specific UOM i.e. Ton_per_pc (TOP) --- User proportional unit conversion
    2) Create batch characteristic ton_per_pc and assigned UOm.
    3) In material master additonal data select proportion unit and enter the standard conversion rate between ton & pcs.
    4) While doing GR - In batch creation you can enter whatever the conversion rate is and Inventory will be updated accordingly.
    Regards,
    Ravi.

  • Alternative unit of measure.. how in this scenario?

    Hi,
    KG is our base unit of measure
    and we would to use Littres(L) as the purchasing unit for this material.
    Therefore, we tried in system adding litres as alternative unit of measure.
    But we cannot figure out how to put in the density 0,87 kg/l as net weight only as gross weight.
    I have tried the below but system complained that "decimal places are not permitted"
    X----AUN-<=YBUnGrossWeight--NetWeight
    1-----L--<=-0,87--KG-0,87--
    1,000
    1,149-L--<=1--KG-0,87--
    1,000
    any clue?
    tjanks
    Tuff

    In purchasing view after defining alternative unit of measurement as L a POP up appears there you maintain as ,
    For ex:1kg-0.87L, then maintain such as 100 KG-87L.to avoide the decimal places.

  • Alternative unit of measure in BOM explosion report

  • COPA reports - Quantity in alternative Unit of Measure

    Hi all
       My clients requirement is to dispaly quantities in both base UoM and alternative UoM in COPA reports. Alternative unit of measure and the conversion factor is maintained in the additional data of material master. After reading through several forums and documentation, i understand that this can be achieved using COPA enhancement COPA0005.
    I am thinking of creating new value field to store the quantity in alternative UoM and to calculate the required quantity using the conversion factors in MARM table.
    But I have a few questions regading the same.
    1. There are 2 function modules EXIT_SAPLKEII_001 and EXIT_SAPLKEII_002. Which one should i be using for my purpose?
    2. Should enchanement COPA0003 be actived first to make COPA0005 active?
    3. Is any other configuration required apart from created in new value field for quantity in alternative UoM.
    Thanks
    Vamsi
    Edited by: VamsiM on Mar 17, 2011 7:21 PM

    Thanks Ajay for ur reply.
    When I created the quantity value field (say VVXXX), added it to Op. Concern and regenerated the structure; the system itself created the quantity unit field  VVXXX_ME for alt UoM. This field is also added to field catalougue and is also readily avialable for used in KE30. So I didn't have to create a new Characteristic.
    In my case, the alternative UoM is not the same and depends on the material.
