Sales UoM

Hi All,
I've the following requirement:
1) For the same material: for diff customers, the sales UoM has to be different.
2) in the same SO, 2 diff materials to have different UoM.
How do I handle this? pls give as many options as possible..
appreciate quick responses..
Regards,
Raghu.

Hi Raghu,
The sales UOM is only a proposal in the sales document, you can change it to another sales unit (for example the base unit).
Therefore you might want to change manually or automatically it to the desired value.
IMHO one should try to respect the logistic unit for for the sales UOM. If you ship in boxes, then enter the sales orders in boxes. If you ship individual units, then enter individual units, etc.
The pricing UOM is different, so you can sell and ship boxes, but determine the price based on price / unit.
For a consulting customer, I did a special user-exit to check for consistency. Therefore individual consumer units (sub-logistic unit) were only allowed in credit notes and debit notes, not for sales orders.
This way low-level picking was avoided and we only had deliveries with "logical" UOMs.
In case of EDI invoice, I believe it is better to maintain the "logistic" unit in the sales order and dynamically change the unit in the EDI invoice in case it's needed.

  • Wrong Sales UOM in Article and Billing document

    Hi,
    We have an issue in Aggregated Sales Idoc Posting. There is an article which is having Base UOM as "EA" . It has "CAR" = 12 EA.
    So 2 UOMs are there. From POS when the file is posted with 1 CAR , in SAP Billing and Article documents created only with "EA" and not with"CAR".
    In Aggregated "WPUUMS" IDOC,Sales UOM field is there and we checked the Idoc and it contains "CT" for CAR as Sales UOM , but while posting ,it takes the Bases UOM. In this case "EA". Its posting the right quantity as 1 for CAR.
    Please help

    Hi,
    There is no any option to change currancy at time of invoice creation
    But round the way solution is available
    Create sales order with CLP Currancy (VA01) >>> Delivery (VL01N) >>> Create invoice with CLP currancy (VF01)
    Then go to t-code EWUO
    And change the currancy of sales document

  • Dynamically Convert  to Sales UOM in Sales Order

    Hello,
    Our customers sometimes send us purchase orders in a Unit of Measure that is different than our Sales Unit of Measure for a material. 
    Custoemr service would like the system to convert from the Customers UOM on the Purchase order to the Sales UOM of the material.
    For example, they will request 500 lbs of material 555123. We sell this material in bags that weight 55lbs each.  So in reality we need to sell them 10 bags of material which is actually 550lbs.  What they would like is if they entered 500 lbs in the Standard Order, the system would convert this to 10 bags.
    I was looking in MM Basic Data > Additional Data > Alternate UOM to see if this could be setup there.  But I still cannot determine if this is possible.
    Can someone please let me know if this concept is possible in Customizing and if so, where should I investigate.  Thanks very much.

    Thank you for your replies.  I have been investigating the rounding profile prior to this post and though they may be a possible solution.
    Does anyone know for sure though if a Customer Service agent enters 500lbs in the Sales order if this will convert this to the Sales UOM?
    The reason I ask is that I found an SAP Note 453347 that states "In the sales order, the system always uses the quantity entered on the item overview even if alternative units of measure exist."

  • POSDM PIPE - Sales UOM is not enriched

    Hi,
    We are receiving sales into POSDM with two qualifiers, one states it is UPC and other states it is article.
    When UPC is passed, Sales UOM comes up in TLOGF, but when Article is passsed, not able to see UOM.
    We have POSDM implemented on HANA, BW is extracting article data from ECC and posting it to POSDM. Since we donot see any issue when UPC is passed for the same article, We do not suspect BW extraction.
    Can you please help us pointing to the right place to check

    Hi Vikrant,
    Thanks for your reply.
    Yes Article identifier is 1 or 2. Yes we are passing 1 for UPC and 2 for Article.
    I recognized the UOM table to be /BI0/PRPA_MARM, but however for one of the article the entries are as follows. Do you know, how system recognizes whether a UOM is Sales UOM?

  • Sales Uom And Packaging Uom(Sales)

    Hi experts
    My company sales seed packaged in Packets(pkt) as well as Bales
    A bale has 12 packets. How can I set up so that when one enters for example 2 bales, this should automatically be equated to 24packets. I have set the inventory UoM to packets(pkt)
    When I set the Sales Uom to Pkt and set Items per sales Unit to 12, SBO does not allow me to sell for example 3 pkts
    Again if is set Bales as a packaging Uom(sales), When I type 3 bales for example in the no of Packages, it has no effect the quantity of packets
    How do i set up so as to be able to sell both pkts and bales and have the inventory updated correctly

    Hi Ezekiel,
                      You can set the Sales UoM as Pkt and in the Item per sales unit, you can select as 12 (according to the example that you have given). While adding sales order document, if you want to sell the item as 2 bales = 24 packets, just select the Base Units frm the Form settings and select no (it comes as default), which will reduce your stock wth 24 and if you want the to sell only 2 paclets, select the Base units as Yes. Try and run this in test database, it will clear your doubts. Hope this helps.

  • Multiple Sales UOM

    Hi
    Plz tell me is it possible to have multiple sales UOM?

    Dear Rahul,
    In Material Master (MM01/ MM02),
    You can maintain multiple Sales unit.
    T. Code: MM01/ MM02
    Select Views from the list.

    Now, here, at top-left you will notice a Tab: Additional Data. Click.
    Next screen, go to Sub-Tab: Unit of Measurement.

  • Sales uom Vs Pricing Uom control

    Hai Gurus,
    In sale order material having sales unit 100 Feet , but in Pricing condition user made a mistake 1 EA = 100 Rs(but actual is 1feet = 100 Rs. That material having alternate uom conversion. 10 Feet = 1 Ea. So, system automatically convert the wrong calculation(ie.10 Rs).
    Is it possible to stop sales uom differ from Pricing Uom.
    Regards
    R.Udayakumar

    Hi Udaykumar
    As you are telling 1 Feet = 100 INR but the end user maintained 1EA = 100INR. So in MMR->basic data1 ->click on additional data ->click on UoM there you change it the UoM as 1Ea = 10feet 
    As far as price is concerned check in VK12 what you have given for the material EA or Feet , Assuming that you have given EA. So when you create a sales order then go to item data->conditions tab-> Manually change the Uom to Feet , If you want to calculate the price in feet only

  • Re:Base UOM  & Sales UOM

    Hi guru's,
    My end user requirement is they require Base unit of measure in P.O. & sales unit of measure in Stock Transport Order can it be possible if yes please explain what can we do?
    thanks
    tuljasingh.

    Hi,
    This is Possible, you have to maintain in Basic Data 1, the conversion between Base unit of measure and Sales Unit of measure, by maintaining the conversion you can have any of these two UOM in your PO.

  • Difference in sales UOM & Base UOM

    Hello All
          Am having a query wherein we get an order of Plastic sheets in KG but the base UOM of the is in EA, we maintain a relation that 1EA=1Kg, this relation is worked out on the basis of past experience and weighed mean.
            Customer order is given in KG of a sheet, suppose customer places an order of 100 KG ie we have to produce 100 EA of sheets, but when we weighed 100EA of sheets it came out to be 101KG, now am facing a problem that how do we prcoess this customer order, because according to the relation maintained we must have 101EA of sheets. How can we MAP this scenario. Your inputs are required and appreciated.
    Regards,
    J K Tharwani

    Hi JK,
    I hope your are working with MTO.
    Do u mean to say, system should allow to GR  101 EA even if the Order qty is 100 EA .

  • More than one UOM for an item in sales and quotation

    Dear all,
    I am facing a problem with n# UOM and hope to explain to you and see if anyone can resolve my problem.
    Case: 
    We have sales item (non-inventory) selling in different prices with different UOM.  We could not afford to create one UOM with one item code, it will be very, very huge and un-manageable.  (max 3 types of uom for each item but we have more than 20K of items...)
    Next we may set up different type of price list as according to UOM.
    Question:
    1)  How can we relate the price list to UOM at sales quotation, order time?  As each BP only relate to one price list file at a time.
    2)  In one quotation, we can quote same item but different UOM with different price (more than 1 line appear), how to auto read the price by different price list file at that time? 
    Hope to hear from you . 
    Thank you and regards,
    Joan.

    Hi Joan
    This is not possible in standard SAP Business One as it caters for 2 levels only (Purchasing/Sales UOM). There is a POS add-on that does cater for this but you will need to purchase the whole add-on, otherwise you will need SDK development to achieve this.
    Kind regards

  • Changing UoM of a component in Sale Order

    Hello everyone,
    We are faced with the following issue:
    1) For a material A there is a BOM created which has material B as a component.
    2) The base UoM for both the higher level item as well as the component is CS.
    3) The sale UoM for the higher level item is ACB.
    4) There is no sale UoM maintained for the component material.
    When a sale order is created for material A using VA01, the UoM for A as well as B is CS.
    The requirement is that the UoM for B should always be ACB.
    We have tried some user exits also but the UoM for B is always reflected as CS.
    How to solve this problem?
    Best regards,

  • POS Sales Posting Aggregated always in Base UOM Why?

    Hi All
    We have an issue in Aggregated Sales Idoc Posting. There is an article which is having Base UOM as "EA" . It has "CAR" = 5 EA.
    so 2 UOMs are there. From POS when the file is posted with 2 CAR , in SAP Billing and Article documents created only with "EA" and not with"CAR"
    We faced the similar kind of issue in "Receipt based Sales " and we asked the POS guys to pass the EAN instead on Article Code
    They passed the Qualifier "EANN" and the Barcode so that posting is ok for Receipt based sales .We have done this because there is no "SALES UOM" field in Receipt based Message type" WPUBON"
    But in Aggregated "WPUUMS" ,Sales UOM field is there and  we checked the Idoc and it contains "CAR" as Sales UOM , but while posting ,it takes the Bases UOM. In this case "EA".
    Can anyone clarify us whether standard SAP works like this? And is there in any way to make the system to post at other UOM ?
    Please help us in this
    Regards
    Anis

    I am also getting the same issue. The right sales UOM is not getting posted to article and Billing documents from WPUUMS01 IDOC in aggreated sales posting. Can anyone help Plz...

  • Multiple UOM Problem In sales Document

    Dear All,
    Plz Tell me how i manage the multiple uom in SAP Sales Doc.
    For Example - Inventory Uom = KGS
                          Sales Uom     = NOS
      An user wants to book the order in  pound..
    plz give me solution..

    You can only have 2 UOM to use for sales document. In your case, apply most used UOM for your sales UOM. I assume it is NOS.  For the less used sales UOM such as lb, you may create UDF to print out document.  However, the inventory keeping will be a big problem in this case.
    If your sales has equaly weighted 2 or more UOM to use, you have to consider add-on or SDK.
    The other work around would be creating additional item to get the right quatities through BOM to sell. Sales BOM item will only keep track of inventory on component level.
    Thanks,

  • Internet Sales Item UOM

    Hi All,
    I am working on SAP Internet Sales. I have an assignment where i need to findout "where does(which table) Internet Sales gets the UOM(default Unit of measure) information to display on web" in an Order Basket when updated.
    Thanks in advance for help.
    Santhosh

    Hi all,
    thanks for your replies.
    However, I need to restrict the sales UOM at sales order. So that, only the UOM defined with pricing conditions can be the sales unit at a SO.
    If there are more than one UOM defined with pricing conditions, the material should able to be allowed in more than one UOM at Sales Orders.
    For example,
    Material A has UOMs as EA, CAR, BAG. at material master. Only CAR and BAG have defined with pricing conditions. The system should allow the material A to be shown in CAR and BAG.
    The solution provided above only allow the material be sold in one UOM.
    Could anyone provide more solutions?
    Cheers,
    Chris
