Report / inquires showing dual unit of measures

Hi
A material is maintained in Kg and drums (i.e. a drum contains 100Kg of material)
Please mention T Codes of inquires / reports where I can see stock of material in both UoM at a glance.

hiiii
I have checked in our standars system
I hope only possible way to see in standard system is MMBE.
Its possible to create a custom report on Stock display with different UOM.
Dicsuss with ur ABAPer iss very see to create with help of technical consultant.
Hope this wil help to proceed further.
If u need still more clarity, revert ..
Thanks

Report Data in Alternate Unit of Measure

Hi
We are working on Unit of measure Conversion for this we are following How To.Report Data in Alternate Units of Measure document. We did all the steps as mentioned in the document still this is not working. All results are showing zeros with same units of key figure qty like EA, ROl, Boxes and so on. We want to convert this into Cartons and Pallets. My question is is there any thing we need to do which is not mentioned in this white paper.
For example maintaining Conversion Factor in R/3 side?
Do we need to add Conversion factor Key figure to Transfer Structure and Info cubes?
(Which is not mentioned in the white paper) if so which field we need to map this in Transfer Structure?
We are in Version 3.5
Thanks
Naga

Naga,
For your first question.....you can "maintain" different units of measure in 0MAT_UNIT, but at one time you can report on only one alternate unit.
For your second question, I have a feeling that it is the problem with your enhancement to the std SAP code which is mentioned in the How to Paper. After you have done the enhancements did you activate the programs again? If there is somebody with you who is good in ABAP just run this enhancement through him.
Also just make sure you have followed everystep in that how to document, including the query designer part of it.
According to the logic of that paper, if the alternate unit is not available, then it is supposed bring back data in base unit, it is not supposed to error out. Check your ehancement piece again.
Thanks

Dual Unit of Measure and valuation problem in SAP for Diamond module

1. Handling of Dual Unit of Measure. In case if you take Diamond Jewellery, which is having Gold portion as well Diamond portion, we would like to keep UOM for gold portion as Grams and Carats for Diamond portion. As informed by our implementation team (Wipro), handling dual UOM for the same article seems to be not possible in SAP due to product limitations. As this feature is very basic for jewellery industry, we would like to know how SAP can address this business need in SAP.
2. We would like to show Gold & Diamond separately in Valuation for the same article, which is again seems to be product limitation.
As the above 2 issues are fundamental elements in our business, please look into the above issues and give us some solution immediately.

Mr.Rao,
Although I do not much about your business needs and the processes that you are configuring, this is what I understand from your explanations:
1. You design and make jewellery out of Gold and Diamonds. Here I believe that the designer would be knowing how much of Gold and Diamond will go into the making of a jewellery.
2. You would like to valuate the stock based on the gold/diamond gone into each. Each piece of jewellery is unique in itself as its contents may minutely vary for the gold content.
In such a situation, I would suggest considering configuring Variant Configuration. With this, you will be able to maintain different values of diamond/gold for each piece of jewellery at the time of Sales Order/Production Order/Prod.Order confirmation etc. Your manufacturing cost will be at actuals based on the consumption posted during the Prod.Order confirmation. Each piece of jewellery will be unique with few Material Masters.
Hope this helps.

Reporting in Different Planning Unit of Measures

Dear Gurus,
I have a requirement where in the trasnaction happens at EACH and the users want to view the reports at the planning unit of measure. The different conversion factors for planning unit of measure are maintained as part of the product master. The product master contains the planning UOM as an attribute and the conversion factor as a key figure attribute. As of BW 3.5 i know that the alternate unit of measure is the funcationality which can handle this multiple units of measure functionality. But the white paper says that this functionality is available as a standard functionality in BI7. Can any one help me out in handling this scenario.
Please also guide me as what i need to carry out before i start the actual development on this.
Regards
Vijay

Upon further review I noticed that the Unit dimension is being correctly populated when the value is a monetary amount. For example $100 CAD, the CAD is populated in the Unit dimension for this key figure. The distance measurements (all KM) don't have anything.
The UOM is present in both key figures in the bex query when run in Bex Analyzer.

Reporting Data in Alternate Units of Measure

We have a requirement to report data in base unit of measure and also in pounds and kilograms. I have read the paper "How to Report Data in Alternate Units of Measure". My problem is that in our R/3 system the conversion from base unit of measure to pounds is maintained, but no conversion from base unit of measure to kilograms is maintained. In BW, I have 0MAT_UNIT for conversion to pounds but not to kilograms. For the solution to work, am I correct in thinking that the conversion to kilograms must exist in 0MAT_UNIT?
Also, the paper states that it is applicable to BW releases 2.0A to 3.1C. Those of you on BW 3.5 - is there new functionality or a different way of handling reporting in alternate units of measure?
Thanks for your help,
Gail Bodner

Gail,
Nothing new in 3.5 for UoM conversion. It will still have to be the way described in the How To paper.
Maintin the conversion in R/3. Also, Pounds to KG is a standard coversion - you can hard code it too. Issue in UoM conversion comes in where you cut across type of uints, i.e. from vol. to weight. Then additional information like density is needed but within the same area, it shouldn't be a problem.

Dual unit of measure

Dear Gurus,
Is it possible to maintain dual unit of measure for a material in ECC 6. Meaning there should be 2 unit of measures, without any conversion factor.
This is a requirement of a diamond company which wants to maintain the stocks in Pieces as well as Carats.
Regards,
SSR

Hi,
You can only have one base unit of measure and any number of of UOMs with conversion factors. But in your case the number of carats do not relate to the UOM of each.
You do not need to use carat as a UOM.
I would suggest that you use classification and allocate a characteristic of carat.
Then each material master record can have whatever UOM that is relevant (each, piece etc.) but you can have the number of carats stored in the classification view of the material master.
If each individual item can have different carats then you might want to consider batch management. That way each diamond can have a different number of carats and you would use a unique id as the batch number.
But you basic question of having multiple unrelated UOMs is not possible.
P.S. If you want to give any award in DIAMONDS instead of points then I am sure that we would all accept this (smile)

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.

Dual unit of measurement

Hi all SAP gurus,
Can we handle same material with two unit of measures, both units are not linked to each other with any conversion factor. The conversion factor is not fixed i.e. it changing every time.
Let me give more details, presently the material is handled in EA in one plant, we want the same material with KG unit for sale purpose in other plant. Alongwith this we want stock monitoring for material in both units at both plants.
Any suggetions will be helpful.
Manoj Sapkale
Mumbai.

Hi,
The recommended solution is Catch weight management. But this is a entirely different concept & you ll have many restrictions.
Comments from SAP Online help:
SAP CWM provides processes and functions to allow materials to be carried in two independent units of measure throughout the entire supply chain (sales and distribution, purchasing, materials management, production, quality management and logistics execution). SAP CWM also contains costing and inventory management functions and supports integration of Financial Accounting and Controlling, allowing you to map requirements in the valuation area.
Plz refer the following link :
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/8f/89143f81208536e10000000a114084/frameset.htm
Otherwise, It is not possible to have 2 independent units of measures for same material in R/3, ECC.Bcoz any transaction performed in any unit will check the material master for the conversion .
Reward points if useful.
Thanks & regards
Mahesh

Standard Report for base Unit of measure & alternative unit

Hi experts
Please give me standard reports for viewing base Unit of measure & alternative unit for a material code.

Dear Mr Sabine
I observed that you have closed lots of thread without a proper solution. How can you do that? Or what propel you to close the thread? The closure should be done by the person who have created the thread. Till he/she gets a proper reply or the problem is resolved why to close. It may take some time, some days also. Delay reply should not be the reason for closure.
So please avoid from closing unilaterally.

ME51n, ME21n Unit of measure F4 shows all units

Dear Gurus,
Transaction ME51n & Me21n
PR & PO line item Unit of Measure F4 show only commercial unit list. This is Ok.
But when we create Service PR or Service PO, the Item service details Unit of Measure F4 shows all Unit of measures (all entries in table T006) (commercial unit + other non commercial units).
Kindly inform why the Service detail Unit of Measure F4 show all the list.
Is it correct system behavior?
Thanks and Best Regards,
Mohan

i believe there is nothing worng with the system
as both are different table and moreover the data element for the field MIENS in both the tables is different
and i believe that reasons behind this is in case of service unit of measure can be a non dimenetional one as it is a functional requirement or a businees requirement
but in case if you order a material then in that case you need a specific and comercial unit of measurement
so as per my undersatanding nothing wrong in the system

How to hide/suppress unit of measure for values of columns in structure

hi,
hi i am using following in rows and columns.
Rows:
1. material group
2. structure (key figures)
     key figure 1
     key figure 2
     key figure 3
3. base unit of measure
Columns:
1. structure (time scale)
    fiscal period 1
    fiscal period 2
    fiscal period 3
    fiscal period 4
If I run the report I am getting unit of measure for each key figure in each fiscal period. I wan to show unit of measure only once in a base unit of measure (row).
I want to suppress / hide unit of measure in columns (time scale - fiscal period). If I wasn't using strcture, I could have used NODIM in formula. But I dont think that I can use NODIM in strctuere.
Is there any alternative.
pls suggest. Thanks.

It seems that i have found the answer. I have checked the query properties --> check the option - Display scaling factors for key figures.
Pls let me know if you have any other alternatives. Thanks.

Alternate units of measure

Hi,
In order to implement the Alternate units of measure -
I need to implement user exit and activate enhancement RSR0001. In the description below is listed what to implement of includes. In the function group XRSR - I have added the code to the includes ZXRSRTOP and ZXRSRU01. These are both a part of the group. But the last one ZXRSRF01 is not in the include folder. I tried to create an include by right click on the include folder and choose create - I named it ZXRSRF01 and copied the code into it. But it is still not to be found in the XRSR function group and when I check the program the get_form call raises and error in the code of the include ZXRSRU01. How to get the include in the function group or is there another solution?

Variable for Alternate Unit of Measure

Hello Experts
I have implemented the soultion for reporting data in Alternate Unit of measure using the "How to..." guide provided at https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/b7b2aa90-0201-0010-a480-a755eeb82b6f
This solution involves creating a variable which prompts the user to enter the required unit of measure.
However I have a situation where I would like to create variable which is not input-ready and has a fixed value assigned to it without prompting the user. Moreover, I cannot modify the already existing input-ready variable as it is used in other Queries.
Does this involves creating a new user exit or modifying the existing user exit. If yes then can you please tell me how this can be done.
Thanks
Rishi

Hi Rishi,
You can follow any one the below procedure for solve your issue.
1. You can change the variable by removing the check box "Ready to input". But you mentioned that you used that variable in other queries also. So, I am not suggesting this.
2. You create a new variable same as the existing variable but with out selecting "Ready to Input" check box. Now when the user run the query, that variable will not be seen to the user. Now, we will see the customer exit, you assign new variable value to existing variable, before that you have to write a condition for checking the query name. If you are running the query which have the new variable then assign the variable value to old variable. This will solve your question.
I hope you understood this procedure. If you have any doubts let me know.
Regards,
Patil.
