IS-Oil: Quantity Conversion

Dear All,
Need your help.
My user maintained quantity conversion in the material master (MM02) as
below:-
1 MT = 1,026 L30
Then he created sales order and delivery order. But in the delivery
order, the quantity conversion not as expected. In delivery order, the
conversion shows that 1 MT = 1,026 L30 but for 26.316 MT, the system
converted the quantity to 27,321.187 L30 (1 MT = 1,038 L30) which is
wrong. How to correct the calculation?.
Thank you.

Dear Norhayati,
if I understand your initial question correctly, you want to understand how the dynamic quantity conversion is working in your system, which means for example how the system calculates a mass or weight if a volume at a specified observed temperature is entered, where you give your example in MT and L30.
The answer is not that simple. The SAP QCI is basically an open interface, where you configure in your project the quantity conversion, and where you integrate expert software from SAP partner companies for bulk quantity calculations.
This should always be done following a defined project methodology.
There are many calculation models defined globally.
The SAP QCI does not follow a specific model, and, if not configured at all but just used "as delivered" follows basically a modified DIN 51650 calculation model, without the rounding of quantity values specified in that standard. You can purchase standard document DIN 51650 at http://www.beuth.de .
DIN 51650 u201CTesting of mineral oils and related products u2013 determination of quantityu201D - DIN stands for "Deutsches Institut für Normung", which is the German Institute for Standarization.
QuantityWare, which is a company that develops SAP certified oil & gas conversion products, supports many possible conversion models, which are described here:
http://www.quantityware.com/_data/QuantityWare_MQCI_SP11.pdf
This document also describes the main steps for the dynamic quantity conversion of oil products.
In your case, it is first important to know whether MT stands for mass or weight, and which volume correction standard your system is configured to use, which includes also the version of that standard.
The standard SAP QCI again does only support - via the air buoyancy indicator concept - the DIN 51757 weight correction formula. Standard ASTM D1250-80 on the other hand defines several "tables" how to convert a density (in vaccum) to a density in air, which is then utilized to calculate weights. This standard part is currently being revised by the API/ASTM.
Thus in any project, it is important to define the relevant standards for Volume corrections (temperature and pressure dependant) as well as the weight and mass conversion standards. Rounding of UoM quantities is also important.
I hope this helps a little for a start,
Kind regards,
Markus

Open PO LSMW Quantity conversion error in net price calculation

Hi gurus,
I encountered an error as I was tring to upload purchase orders - "Quantity conversion error in net price calculation". What does this mean and how do I fix this?
Please help
Thanks

Hi Jürgen,
Where in the Material Master can I find the conversion ratio between both units?
Also, I am trying to upload POs for Spare Parts and that's when I get the error. But when I try to use other materials like FGs, everything is ok. I can proceed with the upload without any problem

ME21N--Quantity conversion error in net price calculation

Hi MM experts,
Issue: while creating PO, when attempting to add the net price for line item. but system removes the cost and gives the follow error message says "Quantity conversion error in net price calculation".
The system was not able to convert the order unit into the purchase order price unit. Possible reasons:
i) the conversion results in a net price that is too high, or
ii) the conversion factor for the units has not been properly maintained.
iii) Check whether the units of measure and their conversion factor are correct.
I have checked material master>unit of measure> 1 PL = 22 KG maintained.
Can you please tell me how to resolve this issue?
Appreciated early response.
Thanks in advance.
Suresh

Hi Suresh,
Please check on Material Master Data - Accounting 1 tab - Price Unit

Quantity Conversion Error in Net Price Calculation

We are currently using SRM 5.0 ECS where we created a material PO and had a problem with the product not having the language E maintain in the material master. This caused the PO to have status of "error in process" Once we fixed this issue and tried to reprocess the PO we're not getting the following error message in the Application Monitor:
No Instance of Object type PurchaseOrder has been created. External Reference
Puchase Order still contains faulty Items
Quantity Conversion Error in Net Price Calculation
Has anyone seen this or know what we can do to resolve this so that the PO gets replicated in R3?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Robert,
Regarding this backend error E 212 06 Quantity conversion error in net
price calculation.
This error is because in the PO Order price unit is empty. And
quantity is null. So, please enter the quantity and order price unit
for this PO and order the PO again. Or you can retransfer the
PO manually using the FM BBP_PD_PO_TRANSFER_EXEC. (for this fm you need
to input the PO header guid, which you will get it from tx.BBP_PD
by providing PO number and object type as BUS2201).
This has worked for other customers.
Hope this helps,
Kind Regards,
Matthew

Quantity conversion error in net price calculation in BAPI_PO_CREATE1

I'm creating PO from BAPI_PO_CREATE1 .here i'm getting follwing error
quantity conversion error in net price calculation.
plz guide me to remove it.

Are you using quantities directly entered by the user while calling the function to do the net price calculation? If that is the case, you should use FM CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT to convert the quantity from the external format into the internal one!
Another possibility is that some customizing is missing for converting quantities in different unit of measures (like the quantity in pieces is known, but the pricing calculation is being done on kilos.. but the convertion between these 2 unit of measures is missing).
Good luck!

Query Designer : Quantity Conversion as per UOM

Hi gurus,
I am facing a typical situation here. I have Product Quantity data that I fetch from R3, This has diff UOM based on different product. I know the conversion factor. I have not included the conversion factor in the transformation while loading the data. Hence in the cube, the data is loaded without any conversion.
Now, in my query, I want that the Quantity data be displayed always in say BOX (Whether at aggregate level, ex. Sales Office level or at a more granular level (product brand level)) it should always be in BOX. Can I make such a modification in my query so that the end result for quantity should always be in BOX.
thanks n regards,
Sree

Hi Sree,
You can set unit conversion for relevant key figures in the Query Designer.
For that, you need to create a quantity conversion type first.
For a BW7.x system, use transaction RSUOM to maintain quantity conversion type.
It could be defined like this:
Source unit: from data record
Target unit: fixed: BOX
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Patricia

Quantity conversion not happening at times

Hi all,
I have an issue with Quantity Conversion.The BAse UoM is in Pieces (PC). It works perfectly sometimes and at times when the report is run with Alternate UoM as CS/ KG or TO, it gives the report output in PC only.
This is how the conversion is defined:
1. For material, 0MATERIAL info object is used with 0BASE_UOM and a DSO has been created automatically (in BEx Tab). The data has been loaded for all materials in this DSO
2. A unit conversion type is created in RSUOM. There is no authorization for this tcode. hence cant give more deatils on the definition here.
3. The variable for Alternate UoM used in the query selection screen is built on 0BASE_UOM
4. In the KPI's that use this property, in the conversion tab: the Conversion type is listed AND Target Unit = From Variable
My question is why does the query behave randomly. Why is that the conversion happens properly sometimes and at times it gives the output in Base UoM. Please advice.

Hi,
Can you give some examples of the cases in which the conversion works perfectly, and in which the conversion does not work perfectly?
Another question: is it that the conversion works fine for some specific materials, and for other materials the conversion goes haywire?
Regards,
Suhas

Quantity Conversion in F & A Pricing

Hello friends,
This question is related to F & A Pricing in IS-Oil MAP solution.
I am facing a problem while changing a Billing Document in VF02. In the pricing item conditions screen, when I try to click on the zoom button of a F & A condition type, I am getting the following error message.
"Unable to convert between units of measure L15 and TO for material". But in the material master of the given material, the converion between TO and L15 has been maitained.
Also I am aware that the F & A pricing might also use the QCI component for the conversion. So anyone help me on where to look for the quantity conversion details specified for F & A pricing.
Thanks in advance,
Sankar.

Dear Shankar,
Adding TO in UoM group may lead to inconsistencies for those material documents posted already. Surprise that you see TO in QCI Test but not in UoM group.
To analyse further, Please check in table LIPSO2 using the delivery document number and Item number and see whether you see a quantity for TO or other mass UoM such as KG. Also please share the below information.
1. Transaction qty and UoM.
2. Base Uom and quantity
3. F&A Price quotation price units.

Natarajan

Backorder although on-hand quantity exists

When I perform Pick Release step, the Order status becomes Backorder, although on hand quantity for the ordered item exists. In Exceptions, I got:
WSH_PICK_BACKORDER - Pick Release process could not allocate 1 of item test01 for order 49 as there was insufficient quantity available Or Inventory allocations have failed, and the line has been back ordered.
I saw on the forum that many other persons had this problem, unfortunatelly, none of the advices found here worked.
Does anybody have any other idea?
Thanks.

Hi Out of my exp on OM with different projs.
i had found these cases which causes order to get back ordered.
Any issue related to Back ordering will defenitely fall 1 among these cases
1.     Check in Shipping Transaction Form, make sure the order still in “Ready to Release”.
2.     There might be a lot of possibilities for this problem:
i.)     Order on hold
ii.)     Do not have enough qty
iii.)     Lot expired
iv.)     Wrong reservation (even inventory have enough qty)
v.)     Inventory reserved for other orders.
vi.)     Inventory picked up by other orders
vii.)     Previously return to stock not done properly.
3.     Case 1, check if the order is on hold. Check the order type in Shipping Transaction Form ® “Detail” ® “Source”.
4.     There is another way to check the order type. That is go to WMS Control Board ® “Picking”.
5.     Or go to OM Shipping View to see the order type.
6.     Go to the correct “Sales Order View” instant accordingly by keying in the order# and order type.
7.     Click on “Open Order” ® “Action” ® “Additional order info”.
8.     Do the same for order level and line level.
9.     Case 2 & 3, go to Material Workbench to check if the lot has expired or not having enough inventory for this order.
10.     We can check if any lot is reserved for other order as well.
11.     In Material Work Bench, go check for each lot in the physical locator by clicking on the “Attribute” button. (lot level reservation)
12.     Alternatively, go to Shipping Transaction Form ® OM Shipping View, or go to “Lot Number” (Ctrl + L), click on Attribute column to check the SO reservation of the lot.
13.     Compare the SO info with the order that are having problem.
14.     Case 4, go “Reserve Supply” form (Ctrl + L) to check if the order is wrongly reserved.
15.     Case 5, in the “Reserve Supply form, we can check if the qty is being picked up by other order as well. (order level reservation regardless of lot)
16.     Also, can go to Material Workbench ® Availability, to check for the available to reserve.
17.     Case 6, it might have high possibility the qty is taken up by order with different line, or other orders which have been auto launched.
18.     If this is the case, must do backorder.
19.     Go to Transact Move Order Form ® tab “Pick Wave” ® View/Update allocation ® Lot/Serial.
20.     Click on the checkbox for order which need to be backordered, then go to Tool ® Back Order Line.
21.     Case 7, ask the user if the order has done return to stock previously.
22.     If yes, it might has high possibility that the return to stock not done properly.
23.     Check the lot state, must be in “Resides in inventory”.
24.     Check in Material Workbench to see if the lot is still packed with LPN or not.
25.     Check also if the lot is in physical locator rather than logical locator.
Thanks,
Raj

Projected on hand quantity calculation logic

Hi ,
I am trying to extract information for projected on hand quantities.
Here were my findings
1. MTL_SUPPLY_DEMAND_TEMP
this table has one column called ON_HAND_QUANTITY which stores Projected on hand quantity based on accumulating supply and Demand ( as per trm), However this table is a temporary table and data is also session specific, data will be gone once the session get closed.
2. From Inventory user guide I got a point that "The projected on hand quantity of the item is , defined as Current Available + all future sources of supply and - all future sources of demand."
Now my question is
a. Is there a direct table for calculating projected on hand quantity in application.
b. How do I calculate current available quantity then future source of suuply and future sources of demand.
Thanks in advance

Hi:
~ There is no direct table to get the projected inventory details.
~ Current on hand Qty for a given item shall be obtained from ON HAND QTY table.
For calculating the future supply upto a patricular date, all the expected supplies such as Receipts, Jobs, Internal SO transfer, etc to be considered.
For calculating the future demand, qty required for SO demand, forecast demand, ISO demand etc to be considered.
Projected Inventory = Current Stock (OHQ) + Expected Supply - Expected Demand.

On-hand quantity.

Hi All,
When i query to see the on-hand quantity for a item, it does not show me any. The form was doing that earlier but it does not do now.
Was wondering if any profile option/role has anything to do with it. M on R12
Ashish

I have OHQ in all of the sub-inventory for the items.
But some how it would not enable the buttons on the form to view the availability...
I checked the tables they look perfect, but the form is greyed and it would not show up any data.
THis is not specific to one sub-inventory its happening for all of them..
Any suggestions...
Ashish

Item substitute and on hand quantity control

Hi all!
I've a problem...
I've an item in a BOM with no on-hand quantity ( or little reserve..) but I've another item that can substitute the first one with its availability... how can oracle WIP (and MRP Workbench) understand this?
I try with "substitue" in BOM but it doesn't work ( what does it need for????? ).
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Silvia

Hi, Silvia
Arumugan is rigth. In fact, MRP doesn't work with substitute items. APS can plan substitute items, MRP doesn't.
When you set BOM with the substitute information, it's only documentational. In other words, you need to change in WIP the items you'll consume in that work order.

On hand quantity exists or there are open delivery transactions for this item

Hi all,
on hand quantity exists or there are open delivery transactions for this item in oracle apps at the master item copy from & lines status in Transaction Form in Backordered.
Thank You

Hi,
Make sure you completely receive the PO, then you should be good enough to convert the item to expense.
Thanks
