Stock inconsistencies due to wrong Unit of measure

Hi,
I am currently facing an issue, generated due to master data inconsistencies. The problem is as follows:
I have a  material with Unit of measure " pack". A PO was supposed to be created for "100 packs" of this material, but somehow Unit of measure in PO was "each", and thus it was created for "100 each". The supplier has sent quantity as 100 packs. GR was done on the basis of PO thus 100 each was entered. Invoice has been created and settled. Stock overview is showing this material as "100 each" whereas actually the material quantity physically available is 300 (100x3, each pack has 3 pcs).
I need to correct this situation. so that stock and accounts show the correct data.
Is there any simple way of correcting this issue. like scrapping etc... and how??
Thank you.

Dear Priya,
You have completed the complete purchase cycle.
One way is to reverse the complete cycle, change the UOM and redo the cycle.
Ohter way is, if you need to increase the stock you can do that by delivery free of cost (mvt. type 511) or creating a PO with free tick followed by GR.
In this case you need to check the MAP of the material. If you need to change the MAP also then use transaction MR21.
Before doing please check the accounting impact of all these (the price difference account or the revaluation account will get hit).
In second option you can not change the UOM.(Maintain conversion factor between EA and PACK as 1:1)
Cheers,

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

  • Met problem to change unit of measure in material master

    Our prime made mistake when creating material master with MM01. He used wrong unit of measure EA instead of right one M. And when he recognized this issue and tried to change it with MM02 in view Basic1, system prompt him an error message that "Standard cost estimates for the current period already exist".
    So, please help to let me know how can I delete related records about cost estimates and avoid this error. Thanks a lot.

    Robbie,
    You can delete Cost estimates using T-code:  CKR1 , I am not sure if you can change UoM if you have any goods movements  on the material. The best option would be create new material with correct UoM and transfer stock from old Material to New one with proper Conversion.
    Thanks

  • Multiple Unit of Measure (No Fix Conversion Formula)

    Dear All,
    Cilnet has given me requirement to book the sales document for the particualr product in unit of mesure 'Nos/PC', and the stock is maintained in Base Unit of Measure 'Qtl' (100 Kg = 1 Qtl). Price is also applicable or calculated on the basis of QTL but there is no fix conversion formula of 1 PC = How Many QTL.
    Please guide me on this point.
    Regards
    Rahul

    Hi,
    I was facing the same Problem  ,well for this you need to define a character and associate the same to a  Class .
    And Finally need to assign Combination of these to material in material master classification view.
    Define Charter :
    http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/PLM/Howtocreateacharacteristic
    Assign the Char to Class :
    Tcode : CL02
    Under Char Tab Give the Charcter Name and Place "S" in Org. Area.

  • Issue in Alternative unit of measure (MARM) update using MM17

    Hi,
    I have tried to update alternative unit of measure (MARM) for some materials using MM17.
    It is working for some unit of measures (Like FT).
    But if I try to changes the unit of Measure value for PLB (Counter & Denominator) or DLB it is changing for UNC, if UNC unit of measure is not there for that material then the UNC is getting created.
    But according to MM17 functionality I think PLB values should change.
    Please check and let me, if you have any solution or any one faced the same issue.
    Thanks
    sham.

    Hi Sham,
    Your problem could be caused by wrongly assigned ISO codes to the  unit of measures involved. Most probably to these unit of measures   the same ISO code is assigned. This leads then to problems in the ALE interface of the material master, which is used too by the mass maintenance transaction MM17.
    There only the ISO-code is given  and then the System doesn't know the correct unit of measure, which     
    should be used. So it is possible, that the change is done for a  wrong unit of measure.
    Please check for this your customizing in transaction CUNI.

  • Material's Unit of Measurment differentin  Con & Rec due to Prd Process ?

    Hi
      We got some byproduct due to the production. So we are planned we will take qty in m2 & stock maintain in kg, because this is child material of another one product, so that time we consumption book in kg wise only u2026.
    Finally we want:
          Received: M2
          Stock Maintain & Consumed: kg
      If u have any solution, kindly explain step by stepu2026
    I hope defiantly u resolved my problemu2026..
    Regards
    Porsee

    Dear Porselvan ,
                     You can resolved it by using alternate unit of measurement.
    Now there is two way:-
    1. Take KG as Base Unit Of Measurement then Go to work scheduling View & take unit of issue as M2 as well as you put it asks conversion with KG (How much m2 in one KG) and  it will make all movement posting By M2 but stock will be keep in KG which will be your Base unit of measurement. For consuming in kG u can put Unit KG in BOM of respective article.
    2.  Take KG as Base Unit Of Measurement then Go to work scheduling View & take Production unit as M2 as soon as you put it asks conversion with KG (How much m2 in one KG) and  due to it Production will happen in M2 remaining all things happen in KG.
               For both these condition you can make movement any of unit which both you given by manual changing but automatically it propose unit as i explained.

  • MB5B - Stock on posting date show in other Unit of measure

    Dearl All,
    Pls support me this case: I would like to see this report (MB5B - Stock on posting date) in other Unit of measure.
    This report shows stock in Basic Unit only.
    E.g
    Material A, base unit = M, other unit = ROL
    Report needs show stock in ROL.
    How can I do that?
    Thank you vry much!
    Cao Huy.

    Hi,
    In your case, order unit as ROL and material basic unit of measure is M.
    PO created only for the order unit ROL, and goods have received from the vendor based on the PO order unit.
    So,this MB5B stock on posting date is displayed only the total stock received based on the received GR order unit qty .
    stock also managed only ROL unit of measues. it is not possible to list based on the M stock unit.

  • Unit of measure for Stock and Non-stock Item in CJ20N

    When I attach Material to an activity (item Category N   Non-stock item) in Project Builder (CJ20N), It is peaking its Base unit of Measure as unit. Now when I try to change it, it is showing an error
    Item category N: Only base unit of measure M allowed
    Message no. CO344
    But for the same material if I change the item Category to L   Stock item, then it allows me to change the unit.
    Please guide me regarding this Behavior. Is there any customization, by doing which it will allow me do the same for Non-stock Item or It is not Possible.

    firstly I am assuming that the activity is internal processing type - doesn't matter really
    now to attach a material select actvity and from the template area click and drag material which will open the material detail screen in the work area
    because it is a non stock item I am assuming text description - in the requirements qty you enter the qty and next to it the units - changeable
    if you choose a material number maintained as material master then obviously the unit will be from the material master.
    If you are using an externally processing activity then in config check OPUU for the network type and see if order unit has been populated - that might be the problem

  • Unit of measure for stock , Goods issue , Purchase.

    Dear All Experts,
    How we can maintain different unit of measure for Stock, Goods Issue, Purchase?
    Regards,
    Sandeep.

    Hi,
    The UOM qualifies the quantity you enter on the
    purchase order line. This will default in if you entered an item number, if not enter
    a UOM of your choice using the List of Values.
    Please Refer the following links...hope it helps you....

  • Need Multiple Units of Measure for a given material due to multiple vendors

    Hello,
    We have a requirement where we must have multiple units of measue (each, box, case, pallet) for a given material.
    Background:
    We have multiple vendors for one SAP material number. We need to store 4 levels of units of measure for each vendor+material combination.
    Unit of Meaure levels
    1. Each
    2. Innerpack (ex: 12 each = 1 innerpack)
    3. Box (ex: 36 eaches = 1 box)
    4. Pallet (ex: 100 eaches = 1 pallet)
    Standard SAP allows in MM01 additional data --> Units of Measure only 1 Ea, Box, Plt, etc.
    Our requirement is to allow multiple Units of Measure due to multiple vendors providing the same material.
    So, our unique combination is by a Material+Vendor.
    We are considering adding the vendor name and vendor number to the material master --> additional data --> Units of Measure tab.
    Does this seem like a good solution? What impacts do you foresee with approach?
    Any alternatve solutions?
    We thought we could enhance the purchasing info records to allow multiple units of measure too but then we need to also add many fields to hold the weight, lenght, height, width, volume, country of origin, etc.
    Please recommend a best practice or solution to handle this requirement.
    Thanks in advance!!!

    Hi,
    Maintain the alternative units in Material Master in Additional Data -> Units of Measure section with proper conversion factors.
    Create individual info-records i.e. per mtl-vendor combination & in the info-record maintain the order unit, along with other details as required.
    Now when you create a PO, the details will be read from the info-record. To test the same, create them in your sandbox & see if it meets your requirement.
    Hope the above clarifies your query.
    Regards,
    Vivek

  • Stock in alternative unit of measure

    Hi experts,
                     I have problem regarding tools stock, I want to see stock of such material in alternative unit of measure in transaction MB52. Is there any settings for such option in MB52?
    Regards,
    Rakesh

    you can see the stock in alternative unit in MMBE, for one material only.
    SAP cannot expect that all materials  listed with  Mb52 are having same base unit and same alternative unit, only in this case it would make some sense, for all other cases it would just make trouble. So it is not provided.

  • Change Unit of Measure for Non-stock item PR

    Good day!
    I have created a non-stock PR. After I saved it, the transaction was then converted to RFQ and then to PO. In PO, it was found out that the unit of measure was incorrect. We have reverse/cancelled both RFQ and PO but the unit of measure field is non-editable. Is there another way to change this aside from deleting and recreating the item?
    Thank you.

    hi,
    Its correct...It is always follows the same scenerio...
    You can only change the Unit of measure when you have just saved the document and can change it till the further document is not made for it...
    Once you make the further document like as you said you have made RFQ, its not possible to make change further...
    So, the alternative is you delete the exsisting line item and create the new one...
    For the same, create the new RFQ and PO items as well...
    Regards
