Unit conversion not possible

We are facing a strange issue here.
Our customer system (R/3 and BI) is maintained in German. If we log in to the system in English language and try to load transactional data then the load fails with the error message u2018Unit conversion is not be possibleu2019.
eg : Unit Piece means Unit Stuck in German. Stuck is maintained in the BW system.
If our flat file has unit as Stuck then the system will through error.
When we checked in the source, we can see the units in English as well as in German. But when we try to upload it to BW only German units are getting uploaded.
Please Suggest.

Check the solution 2 in below note.
Note 681931 - Error due to conversion exits during the file upload.
Thanks,

Conversion of dimensionless units is not possible

Dear All,
i have maintain WM configuration. but while creating and saving a MIGO document w.r.t PO errors shows "Conversion of dimensionless units is not possible".
Waiting for favourable response
regards
Mahesh Dasari

"what units do you use in the goods receipt, in the purchase order, in the price conditions of the PO.
Have you checked CUNI if there is a conversion maintained for your unit pc ?"
Unit used in GR and PO is PC and in CUNI no conversion is maintained for this Unit.

'RSTS_READ' after upgrade error Required conversion not possible (ZFORM16)

Hi,
We have recently upgraded from SAP 4.7 to SAP ECC 6.0.
For client requirements, they have developed ZFORM16 in 2006 by copying the standard form HINCF160.
But after upgradation, when we execute ZFORM16 for 2006 data we are getting the error message:
                         Required conversion not possible
Some analysis of the issue is:
1)     In include: ZPCF16IN3 at statement:    PERFORM read_temse.         " MDSNT927906
2)     It is going to include : ZPCF16IN8 we are getting the error message at the statement :
call function 'RSTS_READ'
The error message is: Required conversion not possible
When I have checked the standard of form 16 HINCF160 code in ECC 6.0 is as:
In include PCF16IN3, PERFORM read_temse. Statement is commented and the corresponding form in PCF16IN8 include is also commented (Form read_temse) and now SAP is using different logic to get the DETAILS OF TAX DEDUCTED.
If I try to comment the PERFORM read_temse in ZPCF16IN3 then I am able to get the Form16 but DETAILS OF TAX DEDUCTED are not displayed. DETAILS OF TAX DEDUCTED logic is in PERFORM read_temse in ZPCF16IN3.
Can someone help me in solving the issue?

Prem

We had to restart SAP & Oracle and the issue is solved

Kindly give your suggestions to resolve the issue.
Any Suggestions???

Edited by: kumkum basu on Sep 7, 2010 9:24 AM

in the unit table PCE is maintained not PC. you can also check the FM CONVERSION_EXIT_CUNIT_INPUT.
actually the issue is: PCE and KAR are units which are maintained under Dimensionless DIM ID AAAADL of table T006D.
therefore the unit is not getting converted.
can anyone suggest what else can be done to convert the units under AAAADL dimid.

Unit conversion Error during initialize planning area

Hi,
When the dependent requirements planning area initialized for version 700 after filling BOM for Finished products for a Plant, system throws error message u201CUnit conversion not possible for product XXXXX (KG=>KM) u201D. The planning area UOM is KM and the finished product uom is also KM. The components uom is KG and EA. Why this error is thrown.
We can't maintain a alternate UOM measure for the component for EA and KM conversion.
Can someone explain how to overcome this error.
thanks and regards
Murugesan

Please check the specific product on your system if they have same base UoM both ECC and APO. Also do you have user-exit for unit of measures implemented on your system?
Thanks!

Automatic time conversion is not possible

Hi Friends,
I have a problem in Transformation Level when i am mapping "automatic time conversion is not possible for source field FISCPER to 0FISCYEAR,FISCPER3".can any one help me in this issue.
Thanks
Narasimha

Yes if it was date filed then it would have been possible.If you are trying to derive the fiscal year between datasource and cube then you can get it with the help of simple filed level routine.
Map your fiscper field from source to fiscal year--Rule type Routine.
RESULT = SOURCE_FIELDS-(Technical name of source field)+0(4).
For Posting period
Map your fiscper field from source to fiscper3 year--Rule type Routine.
RESULT = SOURCE_FIELDS-(Technical name of source field)+4(3).
This will give you the required output.

Short dump: Conversion from type 'c' to 'v' not possible

Hi,
When do we get the following error? 'Conversion from type "c" to "v" not possible'.
I am getting this dump when I try to assign a structure to a field symbol.
This is happening only for a specific structure type.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Wenonah

Hi,
type - v is Structure with internal table , deep structure....
u might have declared the field-symbol as a typed one.....
Declaring it a generic one like type any as suggested in above post might solve the problem.....

Assignment of single Sales group to multiple Sales offices not possible

Hi all,
We need to assign single sales group to multiple sales offices in CRM. When we try to assign a Sales group to more than one Sales office the first assignment between Sales group and Sales office is removed. Only the new assignment is available.
Instead of having two assignments I still only get one.
First I transfered the ECC organization as Standard backend integration. When I realize I needed multiple backend assignment I ran the Conversion to multiple assignments. However, I am not able to realize multiple assignments.
Is it not possible to realize multiple assignment if you first transfered the ECC organization as standard (single) assignment?
Please let me know how to overcome this problem.
Regards
Anders

Hello Anders,
Starting CRM 4.0 multiple hierarchy with this enhanced org data model
works the following way:
- 1 R/3 org data mapped to ONLY 1 CRM org unit.
- multiple hierarchy (1 sales office assigned to several sales org,
1 sales group assigned to several sales office) is managed in the detail
of the org unit with tab Function and with sub tab sales office
and sales group.
For example if you have following R/3 org structure:
Sales org SOr1
_ Sales office Sof1
_ Sales Group Sg1
_ Sales office Sof2
_ Sales Group Sg1
Sales org SOr2
_ Sales office Sof1
In PPOMA_CRM you have to do the following:
For the R3 mapping :
Sor1 mapped to org unit 50000001
Sor2 mapped to org unit 50000002
Sof1 mapped to org unit 50000003
Sof2 mapped to org unit 50000004
Sg1 mapped tp org unit 50000005
And for the multiple assignment
- For sales org 50000001 and 50000002 you just have to maintain in tab
function, sub tab Sales org the Distribution channel division values
- For sales office 50000003 in sub tab Sales office the assignment to
sales org Sor1 and Sor2
- For sales office 50000004 in sub tab Sales office the assignment to
sales org Sor1
- For sales group 50000005 in sub tab sales group the assignment to
sales office Sof1 and Sof2.
If you have different division distribution channel on sales office sale
group compared to the sales org you can maintain manually the values.
Or if is it always the same values you can use * value for distribution
channel division (in that case please read carefully notes
691015 and 735020 if needed)
In addition regarding report CRMC_R3_ORG_GENERATE I would like to
clarify that this report can only be used for initial download, as
written in the customzing documentation of this report (spro-CRM -
master data - org management - data transfer - Copy SAP R/3 sales
structure ) it can only be executed once and so following org
modifications have to be done manually in PPOMA_CRM.
So for this report the correct way to use it is to create all the R/3
org data in 1 shot.
If only 1 R/3 org data is already mapped to a CRM org unit in ppoma_Crm
you will have red light and so it will be impossible to create all
dependent org data.
Hoping i have been able to clarify how it works.
Regards, Gerhard

Unit Conversion in the Query

Hello Experts.
I have a situation where I need the units of quantity to be converted at the query level. For e.g. if the value of the keyfigure is stored in litres in the Cube, then at the time of the query execution this value should be converted in gallons.
I cannot use the following options in this case:
1) The Solution for alternate UOM using the How-to guide for the same as the conversion from liters to gallons is not maintained at the material master level in my case
2) I cannot use the Unit Conversion in the Conversion tab because gallons won't be the only target unit in my report, it will depend on the type of material select by the user.
Please let me know about the options in this case. Any sort of help is appreciated and points will be duly rewarded.
Thanks,
Rishi

Hi Prasad,
In both of the ways, there should be only one target unit for them to work which is not the case in my situation. I want only specific material types to be displayed in gallons. If the User selects a different Material type then the target unit will be different.
Any other possible solution on this one.
Thanks,
Rishi

Quantity and Unit conversions

Hi Experts,
I have an inventory report in which i have three columns (Total cost per unit, Stock Quantiy and stock values)
Total Cost per unit is in EUR -- currency conversion exists in the report level.
Stock Quantity in KG/PC/LB - Unit conversion exists at report level.
Stock value in EUR -- Multiplication of Total cost per unit and stock quantity.
In my case, Total cost per unit and Stock quantities are coming from different Infocubes on top of which a MP is designed.
When i change the UOM from KG to G or PC or LB, Stock Quantiy values are changing accordingly.
However the Stock value is also changing which should not happen because realistically Stock value in EUR for a specific material and plant combination should always be same irrespective of any UOM(KG/G/PC/LB) for the keyfigure "Stock Quantity".
I am wondering if it possible to change the "Total cost per unit" value in the report according to the change in UOM.If so can you provide me your valuable inputs?
Quick help is highly appreciated.
Best Regards
Nag

hi,
Please use CKF's for all the three values, currently it might be changing as it might be a simple formula i.e. a = b*c.
if b changes then a is bound to change.
create CKF without any currency conversion. apply the calculations in CKF.
In the end use CKF in the report and apply the conversions after adding them in the query column.
regards,
Arvind.

Unit conversion from KG to Milligram

Hello
I have a problem that i want to sell the material in Milligrams, which base unit is KG. In SAP not accepting to sell the material in Milligrams but some times i want to sell in Milligrams. Please give the solution.
Regards/RK

Dear Ramakrishna,
the reason why the system issues an error message is due to the fact that the factor to convert KG into MG is 1.000.000. This value is greater than the allowed five digits. If you enter G the factor is 1000 (= 4 digits). Therefore the conversion is possible. For further information please also refer to note 362932.
In your example you should most probably use G instead of MG.
Unfortunately there is no exit or enhancement to change this behaviour.

Tibor

Unit Conversion in BEx BI7.0

Hello all,
Im working with BI7.0 and I have been reading the posts about the quantity conversion and In order to use the unit conversion in BEX (not in transformation), I can apply the sugestion described in
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/b7b2aa90-0201-0010-a480-a755eeb82b6f
But what happens with the post in this forum about using transaction RSUOM ..i mean if i use the link solution isnot necessary to use transaction RSUOM? or with BI7 is the "new" solution to use RSUOM ¿?
Can someone please explain a little bit
Thanks in advance for your help.
MV

thanks gdmon for your help..
I have already created the underlying DSO and "connected" to the 0MAT_UNIT InfoObject using a transformation. In the transformation rule I have been conected:
MATNR->0MATERIAL,
MEINH->0UNIT,
UMREZ->0UOMZ1D,
UMREN->0UOMN1D
but I still have 0BASE_UOM not assigned ..my question is if is possible not assign the infoObject 0BASE_UOM (initial) or if I have to assign to a R/3 field..but do you know which field can I assign?

Hi,
You can try unit conversion planning function,create planning function and add it at the back of button.
Can refer to link below:-
Not sure if it can solve your problem.As it also depends upon source and target keyfigure used.

Worst support ever - TC drops WAN/internet and config not possible

Brand new TC Dual Band 1GB. Connected to Siemens Fiber modem using DHCP, one 2GB USB disk, configured as WAP.
It dies several times a week - when it dies internet connection is lost and airport utility sees the TC but cannot read the configuration - LAN, WLAN and disks are operational. This is for wireless and wired devices (2PC's and 2 Mac's).
My previous setup - the siemens modem with a LinkSys router worked 100% stable.
I have tried resetting - resetting to factory defaults, I have had a replacement TC sent - not better, seemed even worse. Reinserted my linksys router and hooked the TC's WAN port to the Linksys - still dying - so I returned the replacement unit and kept the original.
I spoke to support again - they had one "expert" calling me - what an arrogant SOAG, at some point he said - "end of conversation" and slammed the phone.
He had never heard of the problem - "most be the ISP's equipment or the LinkSys".
Tried to explain him that i'm not the only one - just check apple forums - that the TC has problems with my Siemens fiber modem, LinkSys doesn't, and even placing my Linksys router between doesn't help.
For me this all indicates that the firmware on the TC is not stable - he argued that this is not the case, this is a compatibility issue. I agree that it might be a compatibility issue - but the root cause is still the firmware of the TC.
He wanted me to try the TC at a different location with a different ISP - but for me that would just show that the TC works in some setups - but for him that would 100% clear the TC of any blame - that makes no sense.
Am I wrong - or is the "expert" wrong - give me your opinion, thanks.

Similar problem, cannot connect to TC with Airport Utility so config not possible cannot access with the Configure>Other IP address way either, until I reboot the tc than all is well for a few days. It continues to function as PPPoE connection to fiber internet. Usually the MobileMe back to my Mac access is also not possible to access TC's disk. This is a replacement TC the first one was the same. ***??? Sick of this, 500$ for ease if use

Payroll area change is not possible

Hi,
When we are doing promotion action, i.e, one paryoll area to another paryoll area, In actions whatever the date we are giving is taking, but when come to org assignment it is not allowing to save with that date and throwing error " payroll area change is not possible at the end of payroll period"
For example: In Actions start date is 04.01.2010, in org assign is not allowing to save the entry with that date, but if we give 01.01.2010, it is allowing to save the record. As paryroll period is starting of the month to end of the month, that is the reason it allowing the start date of the month in org assign, but user wants the record from his desired date..
Please help me on the issue.
Thanks & Regards
Kumar

Hi Kumar,
Mid-payroll payroll area change is allowed for only a few countries including:
