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.

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!!

  • 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.

    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.

  • UOM conversion not big enough

    Hey All,
            I have a strange requirement. The numerator field UMREZ for UOM conversion is of 5 digits, which means the max value can be 99999. We have a need to do a Alterante UOM conversion which is greater than 5 digits.
    Example: 1 PAL = 200000 EA.
    How do I acheive this?
    We are looking into all possible options.
    First is thru config to create an intermediate UOM so that we can do two UOM conversions and acheive our result, but this is also going to be a big change.
    Is there any other option through code to increase the length of this field, or any other alternative.
    I tried searching and looking for OSS notes, but no luck.
    Any input is highly appreciated.

    Thank you for your replies. For a moment I thought this might be an option, but the problem here is not that the quantity is too large. but that the conversion factor is too large.
    Let me explain again.
    I have one unit which has the following conversion.
    1 Pallet = 3000000 Eaches.
    Numerator = 3000000  "here is the problem, numerator field is only 5 digits
    Denominator = 1
    which means if i get say even 100 pallets as input it have to convert
    100 X 3000000/1 = 300000000.          "the problem is UMREZ (3000000) is too big for that field
    So here i cannot use any preconversion or post conversion.
    BUT if i do think in the same line i can try to use a multiplication factor for that particlar unit of measure which i can just multiply at the end. I can maybe look to incorporate this in an enhancement when the UOM conversion is done. But I still have to figure out how to display it in the material master. Let me investigate more into this option.
    Any other suggestion as welcome.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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
    You can contact me at: [email protected]

    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.

  • 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 .

    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?

  • Solid state hard drive is not big enough

    I recently purchased a PC with a 4 TB hard drive.  There is also a 60G Solid State hard drive on which the operating system is loaded.  There is not enough room for CS5.5 and the operating system.  I would like to uninstall CS5.5 and install it to the 4 TB drive but I was told Adobe needs to be on the same drive as the operating system.  Any suggestions?

    I was told Adobe needs to be on the same drive as the operating system.
    That's nonsense. Adobe apps can be installed just fine to a secondary drive. However some components will always end up on your C: drive for practical reasons - the licensing system, PDF handling, some other shared components - as that's the only way they can be found and loaded reliably by all programs. that stuff is at most about 1 GB. The rest of the programs can go to the otehr drive. I would suggest, though, that you create a separate partition for this, not use the full 4TB partition.

  • Layout problem - screen not big enough!

    Hi everyone,
    I was wondering if anyone could think of a solution to my problem.
    I currently have a jframe which has four tables on it, one table spans the upper row, while the other three tables below it are next to each other: -
    | Upper Table |
    | Table 1 | Table 2 | Table 3 |
    I don't specify the dimensions of the tables or the jpanels that these tables will occupy so that they will fill the screen regardless of any different screen resolution that is used on the computer.
    My problem is that the combined heights of these tables means than the Jframe is bigger than the dimensions of the screen, so I can't see that bottom of the jframe - which among other things means I can't manually click on the bottom right corner to re-size the window.
    The reason I don't want to specify the exact dimensions of the tables or panels is because if I (for example) set the dimensions to fit into 800x600, and the person has a 1280x1024 resolution then when they maximize the window there'll be a big border around the tables. Like I said before, I want the tables to occupy the available space.
    I've tried setting the size of the jframe at startup using the setSize and setBounds method but it has no effect. It's odd, because I can still resize the window using the top left or top right corner and click and dragging to resize the window. When I make the window smaller the layout of the tables is fine, so I don't understand why the setsize method won't work - it's not like I'm setting the size to below their minimum dimension or anything.....
    I hope my explanation of the problem is clear :-)
    Does anyone know how I might fix it?

    oh, I think I might have fixed it. If I setpreferedsize on the panel that contains all of the tables, then it seems to work! :-D
