SPRO path for maintaining basic and alternative unit of measure.

HI ,
Please tell me path in SPRO where we maintain basic and alternative unit of measure. If it is not in SPRO ,please suggect where to create new or delete old unit of measure.
Waiting for your reply.
Thanks
Rohit

Setting up new units can be done in transaction CUNI
If you want change units in a certain material, then do it in MM02, click button alternative data, then goto the units tab

Basic Unit of Measure & Alternative Unit of Measure ?

How to configure basic and alternative unit of measure(UOM) for a material ?
If KG - basic UOM
Mtrs - Alternative UOM
Here we procure material (GR, PO) with basic UOM, no prob with this system ill pick basic UOM automatically.
and if we need to make GI with Alternative UOM ?
How to configure the above scenario ?
thankq

Hi,
As you procure material (GR, PO) with basic UOM(KG) and you want to make GI in Mtrs - Alternative UOM.
Go to MM02 , enter your material{( you must have UOM(KG) } and select view of General Plant data/Storage 1 and in unit of issue field enter meter, then system will ask you to enter conversion factor Mtrs to KG. Enter your conversion factor and save.
Now try ur transaction.

Requirement in alternative unit of measure

Hi,
A material is maintained with EA as Base unit of measure and alternative unit of measure is maintained as 100m=1 EA. when MRP is run, the requirement appears in EA and not meteres. The issuing UOM is maintained as M in plant/storage view. Is there a way to have the uom for the requirement in the reservation to be in Meteres.
thanks

Dear
Please check in BOM, routing according to the same UOM.
And in Stock reqyuirement list MDO4 click on the Settings there u ll find the general settings under that tab u find the UOM
basuunit of measure and alternate unit of measre in that u ll find the list

How to make system consider Alternative unit of measure while creating BOM?

Dear Experts,
When creating a BOM, how do I make the system consider the alternative unit of measure if at the point of creating the BOM, I decide to use the component material alternative unit of measure? The scenario is as follows:
Header
Material code is TK677, Base Unit of Measure is Litres.
Components:
Material code is RT677, Base Unit of measure is Litres.
Material code is RV677, Base Unit of measure is Kilogram.
When formulation is done in the laboratory, the components are weighed and measured in percentage weight. For example, 20% for first component (RT677) and 80% (RV677) for the second component.
To depict this, I maintain an alternative unit of measure of Kg in the Material Master of RT677, and maintain the conversion factor (100kg = 116Litres) so as to enable me use Kg as unit of measure for material RT677 when creating the BOM.
When creating the BOM, I enter Kg as unit of measure for material RT677, but gets the system error message ''Unit of measure KG not supported for material RT677 in plant NG00
Message no. 29175''
What do i need to do as I have already maintained Kg as alternative unit of measure? or which other better way should i handle this issue?

Thanks a lot for your reply, it worked, it allowed me to create the BOM using Kg for component RT677. But the new challenge i am now facing is that when I try to create a process order copyiing this BOM, it gives me the same unit (Kg) for component RT677 whose base unit of measure is Litres.
I actually want the process order to copy the BOM and use Litres for component RT677 based on the conversion factor which I have maintained in the Additional Data window of the material master.
The reason is that, the formulation done in the lab is measured in percentage weight, but this component weight is now scaled up to Litres when the component is pumped into the Blending Vessels as specified in their Blending Instruction.
Please how do I ensure that when the master recipe is copied during creation of the Process Order, that the unit of measure will be the base unit of measure (Litres) despite the fact that I have used the alternative unit of measure (Kg) for this component during creation of the BOM.
Thanks

Table for alternative unit of measure

HI
I have created a material whose Basic UOM is Kg
I have maintained alternative unit of measure as TON and maintained the relationship 1 ton = 1000 Kg in material master -- additional data -
units of measure.
I want to capture the data for creation of report ....In which table this data is stored ?
Thanks

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.

Ravi.

RWBE and changing Alternative Units of Measure

Hi
I'm trying to use RWBE to view the stock holding of multiple materials. I want to change the base unit from Ea's to TON's for all the materials in the list however it seems that I can only do this one at a time for each material in the list. If I change the list display to the "Tree Structure" I get an ABAP dump when attempting to convert all the items at the same time.
Can this be done using RWBE or is there an alternative report which can be used.
Thanks in advance
FYI- MMBE is not an option since I need to view materials u201Cen massu201D

Stock and Values in Alternative Unit of Measure

Dear Experts,
Can anybody suggest me any Standard Report for Stock and Value in Alternative Unit of Measure.

Hi,
you cannot take stock report with alternate UoM. Alternate UoM is for "ORDERING" purpose only and not for SKU.

For external network activity, controlling key PS02. I want to read Activity Qty and its unit of measure.
Is there any function module or Bapi for this or any selection table logic?
I have tried BAPI_PROJECT_GETINFO and BAPI_NETWORK_GETDETAIL but I am not able to get this field?
If anyone has solution please let me know.
Thanks.

The specified file or folder name is too long,the url path for all files and folders

The specified file or folder name is too long,the url path for all files and folders must be 260 character or less
can we increase this limit?
MCTS,ITIL

Hi,
As I understand, you want to increase the length of URL path in SharePoint 2010.
Per my knowledge, this limit cannot be increased. SharePoint limits URL length because all relative URL links are stored in the clear forms on the SharePoint content DB and often this links are used as primary keys to link one table with another. Fields
which are used to store these links (for instance tp_DirName from the AllUserData table) allow storing only 256 characters.
There are several ways that you can resolve or mitigate URL length problems in the SharePoint Server 2010 environment. The following list provides suggestions:
1. Upgrade all the end-user browsers to Internet Explorer 8, which has a longer URL length limit.
2. Use shorter names for sites, folders, and documents and control the depth of the site and folder structures to reduce the lengths of URLs.
3. If possible or allowed, use ASCII names for sites, folders, and documents. This will avoid situations where the URL will be lengthened by being encoded.
4. To reduce the risk that the SharePoint Server 2010 end-users will encounter problems because of URL length limitations, we recommend that you apply the following effective limits in the deployment:
256 Unicode (UTF-16) Code units - the effective file path length limitation, including a domain/server name
128 Unicode (UTF-16) Code units - the path component length limitation

How to maintain space between value and base unit of measure in sapscript

Hi Guys,
I am working on an upgradtion project, i have problem like while upgrading from 4.6b to 5.0. i need to main a space between value and base unit of measure. can anyone letme know how to maintain in the form. I mean in sapscript.
Thanks,
Yogesh

There are a couple of ways to handle this, if you need a bigger space between, you can use tabs in the paragraph format. Or you can just write the space in between the fields like so.

Poor old Photoshop® is forever being put down when it comes to layout work, but it is perfectly capable, and can output a high quality print PDF the printer will be perfectly happy with. OK you don't have the text flow between columns bells and whistles of InDesign and [spit] Publisher, but if you have a $10/month Photoshop/Lightroom subscription, instead of the $50/month full subscription, don't think you can't do a perfectly good flyer or poster.

Creation of Inspection lot in Alternative Unit of measure

Dear Guru,
Our implementation is going on in a Tube manufacturing company where Base Unit is maintain in KG & 100 % visual inspection is taken place & we accept or reject tube on Pieces. So how can we do this in SAP, Because in SAP Inspection Lot is created on Base Unit & UD (Stock Movement) also in base unit, How can we in corporate Alternative Unit of measure.

Hi,
      1. give unit of conversion in MM basic data (Unit of measurement) say 1 kg = 10 pieces
       2. add unit of issue as a Pieces in MM QM view
        3. add in inspection paln Unit of measure as Pieces ( if possible )
Now during stock posting post the stock KG and now see in stock MMBE by changing the UOm as a pieces you will get the stock in pieces and you can now issue the material in pieces too.

Alternative unit of measure issue in PP in Food industry

Hi,
I want clarification regarding alternative units
here sales order unit is master cartons,,
production people will produce in pieces,,
we are applying 40 strategy here,,,,
so based on master cartons,,MRP will give planned orders in master cartons i think,, when we convert it into process order it should be in pieces. (can we get this by entering prod unit---PC,,,in work scheduling view)
i want to enter Yield in pieces in confirmation field,,, and i want to do GR in master cartons ...
is it possible to maintain production order qty in one unit and GR in other unit?
plz suggest me...
Edited by: sathishreddy on Dec 23, 2010 12:31 PM

production order qty in one unit and GR in other unit?
Not possible
create a BUOM as carton for the material
and Production unit as PC
when you do GR system will take in PC
But when u see in MMBE or MB52 system will show in Carton only
