Read Units of Measure of a Material

Hi,
"Units of Measure" of a Material is maintained as Additional Data in MM01/02/03.
I need to read all the records under "Units of Measure" of a particular material.
Is there any Function Module or BAPI for that?

  • 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.

  • Material Ledger Unit Of Measurement different from Material Master

    Dear Team,
    In my client, there is a difference between unit visible in CKM3N and MM03. The base unit of measurement in MM03 is MT. Other than that, there are some other units maintained (not M3) in additional data tab in material master. In CKM3N, the visible unit is M3. M3 is not present anywhere in MM03.
    Why would such unit flow in material ledger table? (CKMLPP has unit M3). Please advise.
    One more observation is that when there is some price change document in Material Ledger, the proper UoM (MT) is being captured. Only in the basic price determination structure visible unit for each head is M3. Please check the attached screen shot.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

  • Maintain differ type of Unit of measurment for same material

    Hi Expert
    I procured (internal /external)   one material in Kg, but I want maintain different unit of measurement (like M). & sale is different unit of measurement (like m2).it  is possible ?
    If Possible kindly explain the steps
    Advance thanks for all
    Regards
    Porsee

    Hi,
    You can maintain different BuM
    But the stock keeping BuM will remain same
    You have to maiintain in Purchasing view if you wish to Purchase in different BuM other than BuM of material soon you enter different BuM in Purcahsing system aske for the convsrsion factor Like 1kg = 100 PC here BuM is 1Kg but ordered BuM is PC
    In the similer way in Sales View you can enter sales BuM &  stock keep BuM.

  • Changing the Unit of Measurement in Material Master

    Dear Experts,
       Material DF21DENG (fert) was created with KGS (kilogram per second) as its unit of measurement. A material BOM was now created for DF21DENG.
      I intend to change the unit of DF21DENG from KGS to KG (kilogram).  On doing this in the Basic data view of DF21DENG, i get the message " change is not possible because a BOM exists for this material".
      In the BOM of DF21DENG, I set the deletion flag on & tried to change the unit in the Material master again but got the same massage.
      Please how can I effect this change?

    This response was helpful but was solved the problem was that; from the Edit, i  selected Delete  from the drop down & then the alternative BOM was deleted.

  • Unit of measure in Material Master after PO's created

    Hello Everyone,
    I know that we can't change the material measure unit once PO's and other documents are created.
    What can I do with the PO so i can change the material measure unit?
    Thanks in Advance.

    From OSS note 138767
    Within the material master record maintenance, you want to change the base unit of measure (base unit). During the change, the system performs extensive checks in order to avoid inconsistencies in the applications which use the material master.
    In particular, the following checks are performed:
    The base unit must not be defined as an alternative unit of measure for the material
    No International Article Number must be assigned to the base unit
    No proportion/product units must be defined for the material
    No configurable material must be assigned
    The material must not be used as a configurable material
    Stock must neither exist for the previous period nor for the current period
    No physical inventory must be active
    No reservations or dependent requirements must exist for which the deletion indicator is not set
    No planned orders must exist
    No purchase requisitions, purchase orders or scheduling agreements must exist for which the deletion indicator is not set
    No WM transfer requirements, no WM quants or no WM posting change notices must exist
    The material must not be a bill of material
    The material must not be contained in a bill of material
    The material must not be used as a production resource/tool
    The material must not be used in task lists
    No standard cost estimate must exist for the current or future period
    No production orders must exist
    No planned independent requirements must exist
    No run schedule headers must exist
    If the base unit has dimensions, no serial number profile must be assigned
    No sales and distribution documents must exist which have status Not processed or Partially processed.
    Solution
    If necessary, all reasons mentioned above must be eliminated by archiving the objects listed.

  • Material Master IDOC MATMAS05 and unit of measure

    Hi
    We are using SAP standard material master IDOC type MATMAS05 to trigger IDOC. Our material master is having base unit of measure as "G". We are not using ISO unit of measurement. But Material master IDOC, segment E1MARM is populating base unit of meaurement (MEINS) as "GRM".
    Any idea why IDOC is picking ISO unit of measurement instead of material master base unit of measurement.
    Any idea how to send base unit of measurememt as "G" instead of "GRM" in DOC segment.
    Thanks
    Nilesh

    Thats the way it works.  In any interfacie to or from  external sys. , it uses the ISO code from CUNI instead of the UOM .

  • Update info record when changing units of measure in material master

    Hello,
    is there any possibility for an automatic change of info record when changing conversion factors in the material master ?
    We have 3 units of measure in our material master: the base unit and 2 alternative units. The first alternative unit is the order unit and the second alternative unit is the order price unit. So in our purchase info records we maintain an order unit, which differs from the base unit and we also maintain an order price unit, which differs from the base unit and the order unit.
    If we now change the conversion factors between the units in the material master, we would like to get an automatic change of the converions in the info record (to order unit and order price unit), which have the same previous conversions.
    For IS R it seems to be implemented (see OSS-Note 975954).
    Is there any solution for a "normal" industry system ?
    Thanks for answering
    Edited by: Britta Heinsen on Jul 23, 2009 1:52 PM

    I don't think such an auto update is available. Infact I came to know that such an update is available in IS-R after reading your query.
    Obviously you an always create a workflow based enhancement that can synchronize the Info-records and material master changes or sort of enhancement which regularly reads the material master change history for such changes and trigger a synchronization by executing change Info-record automatically.

    There are ISO codes for country keys, currency keys, units of measure and shipping instructions. According to SAP design guidelines, you should use ISO codes for an IDoc if they are available. When you set up the IDoc, the SAP codes have to be replaced by ISO codes.

  • Changing Base Unit Of Measure (Material Master)

    Hi
    1. How to check this? (Any successful changes in material master only took place when there is no open document from SD, PP, MM & FI for that material. )
    2. Base unit of measurement cannot be changed.  The reason being material movement history is there in table - MSEG mainly which otherwise create inconsistency in reporting.  -
    Is this line applicable for current period or previous period in current year or previous period previous year???
    3. There are no existing purchase requisitions, purchase orders, or scheduling agreements for the material. -
    is this means open / pending purchase orders  or the the PO's created in system with respect to material where the GR and IR is already done
    4. You can change the base unit of measure if there is no stock of the material during current and previous period----
    is this means the term " previous preiod" is previous period in the current finacial year   or its applicable for the previous preiod in previous financial year
    5. Post the stock in the previous period to the current period  - -
    how can we do this???

    Solution
    If necessary, all reasons mentioned above must be eliminated by archiving the objects listed
    1) SAP checks this for you. A new button will appear in MM02 and after you click this button to check the error log, you will see which documents exist.
    2) I have not seen that an existing movement will restrict the change of a BUoM.
    3) No purchase requisitions, purchase orders or scheduling agreements must exist for which the deletion indicator is not set
           it is not caring about GR done or IR done. it telling you that the deletion indicator has to be active. As a deletion indicator can be reset easily, you probably have to archive the documents
    4) the previous period is the period before the current period.
       today we have February, hence the previous period is January.
    5) first make sure your current stock is higher than the stock of the previous period. if it is lower, then you have to create inventory in current period first e.g. with 202 movement with current date.
    Then you issue the previous period stock with 201 movement and previous period date (make sure periods are open in OB52 and MMRV allows posting to previous period).
    Finally you issue the left stock in the current period with 201 and current date.
    Now previous period and current period stock is zero. After the change of the base unit you have to get the stock back into the system

  • Mass deletion of Batch specific unit of measure

    Dear Experts,
    How to delete the batch specific unit of measure in the material master maintained in the additional data -unit of measure and proportional / production unit of measure in mass . We have some 1000 material for which we want to remove the datas related to batch specific unit of measure from the material master.

    I have not yet seen an option to delete data with MM17, but I am open to be educated.
    I would suggest you do it with LSMW or CATT.
    However, test it first in MM02, before you waste your time with mass processing. You might receive errors if that material was already in use and batches exist.

  • 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.
    Aaron

    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!!

  • Adjusting the behavior of sales unit of measure on sales order

    Hello Everyone,
    I have a question regarding adjusting the behavior of sales unit of measure (UOM) on sales order (SO).
    We maintain 3 UOM on material master u2013 A, B, C; where A is base UOM and C is sales UOM.
    If we change the material on existing sales order in VA02, system also always changes the UOM on SO to C as well because C is sales UOM on material master. Sometimes SO quantities are in A or B UOM and we do not want system to change them to C when material is updated.
    We know it is a standard SAP behavior and the question is if it can be adjusted somehow (in configuration or some other way), so system is not changing the UOM on existing SO to sales UOM when material is updated.
    PS if we leave sales unit of measure field in material master blank, when material on SO is changed system is still changing the UOM, now to the base UOM A
    Thank you!
    Alex

    ANSWER: According to SAP there is no way to change the behavior without taking the risk of breaking a lot of stuff.

  • Unit of measure in External requirement

    Hi experts
    When the requisitions are created in R/3 the unit of measure of the product is Base Unit of Measure and not Order unit, so the requisitions are transfered to SRM with the Base Unit of Measure but the material has in Purchassing an unit diferent unit of measure but the system not takes it in account, how can ensure the POs are created in SRM with the unit of measure of the material master Purchasing vision?
    Thanks
    Nilson

    Hi. I am not sure if there is a better way, but units of measure are stored in SRM in table COMM_PR_UNIT.
    You could use the BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI method BBP_PO_CHANGE to read the alterante unit and carry out the conversion.
