Unit of measurement for materials received and withdrawn
Hi Experts,
Base unit of material is KG whereas sales unit is M2 and conversion is maintained between both. Now I am using sale unit (M2) while entering material componenets. Then I am raising PR, PO, GR in project and withdraw the material in sale unit M2. But system updates the report in KG (under purchasing data tab of component). When I get material report, system shows reqmt qty in M2 but received and withdrawn qty in KG. Its confusing and doesn' serve the reporting purpose. Can we do something so that received and withdrawn qty will appear in M2 (sale unit) rather than KG (base unit)?
Thanks and Regards

Hi,
To resolve this issue, you need to maintain the conversion factors. In material master, additional tab, unit of measure tab you need to maintain the conversion factors. Say example I Kg = How much M2. If you maintain this the system will convert automatically all the Kg in to M2, or vice versa you can do. Otherwise you can maintain the conversion factors in the Info Record also for externally procured materials.

Unit of measure for calculation type C must be completed
Hi All
When releasing some contracts in SRM , we are getting the error message as above.
The error message doesn't specify any particular part and the contract has more than 3000 parts.
There are no conditions at header or item level.
There is no Target quantity also. Just a Target value for the contract and prices for individual items are maintained.
We are using extended classic scenario and the contract is manually created in SRM.
I have checked the OSS notes for this error, but they are mostly for contract creation in Bidding and not for a manually created SRM contract.
We checked the UOMs for all the contract parts with the UOMs ( Base and Purchasing) in ECC Material Master and they are OK.
In our scenario , MM changes in ECC are replicated to SRM in real time
Any pointers towards pin pointing the error will be rewarded!
Regards
KedarHi,
We encountered this error message and resolved the problem by applying the following 3 SAP Notes:
a) Note #1022928 - Unit of Measure for Calculation Type C Must Be Completed
(Previously Mentioned)
b) Note #1702484 - Unit of Measure for Calculation Type C Must Be Completed
c) Note #1517648 - Default Conditions Added for Product Category Item Type
Although the contract required is similar to a "Limit" item, but had to be placed for bid, then the RFX PS Item Type was set to "Service" to receive the bid responses. After accepting the bid response, then we created a contract from the bid response. Since it was to be a "Limit" type contract, then we immediately removed the data from the following fields:
Remove the Quantity
Remove the Unit of Measure
Remove the Price
Remove the Price Condition
After removing the values from these fields, then we switched the PS Item Type from "Service" to "Product Category". We added the Guaranteed Minimum and account assignment data to encumber the funds. We were able to "Release" the contract successfully.

Unit of measure for a pallet layer in MATMAS03
Hi all,
maybe ths is not the correct forum where to post this question, if it's out of topic I apologize in advance.
Fast question:
What is LAY? it is alternative unit of measure for pallet layers?
When i receive the IDOC i recieve LR as UOM, what is the relation between LR and LAY?
Thanks & regards
AndreaThese units could have been defined only in your system (I don't see them in ours). If it is so, no one here will be able to answer.
The conversion factors could be in Material Master (MM03), on Basic Data screen click Additional Data button and go to the Units of Measure tab. Also see tables MARM and T006. -
Dear Friends,
I have cretaed RFQ for services such as Manpower Hiring where Item category is,"D".Unit of Measure is UT.
Now I have selected the line item and clicked on Services to enter the details of Manpower such as Welders,Fitters,Carpenter etc. and here Unit of measure is HR (Hours).
Now when I am taking print out of this RFQ.Unit of Meauser for Manpower is UT,it is correct.But unit of Measure for Welders,Fitters,Carpenter etc is STD.Infact it should be HR.
I have checked the table ESLL and value of Unit of Measure here for Welder,Fitters,Carpenter etc and it is STD.
Can anyone explain me why the values are flowing as STD but not as HR?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
ShrikantHi ,
Check is there any translation happening for your unit mentioned..

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.

IS-Retail:how to maintain different unit of measures for a article
hi experts,
can anyone tell me how we maintain different unit of measures for sales and purchasing for a article.base unit of measure,order unit,var unit.Hope for a good answer.
RegardsHi,
Go to MM42, select basic data view
In,Units of measure/ EANs /dimensions sub tab
there u can see four radio buttons
B.Un Unit of measure is base unit (used internally only)
O.Un Unit of measure is the order unit - Purchasing
D/L.Un Unit of measure is delivery unit/issue unit - Logistics
S.Un Unit of measure is the sales unit - Sales
for eg:
First line enter EA (each) or PC (piece) in Auom for a material and enter 1 in Number and select radio button for B.Un
Second line enter CT (carton) in Auom and enter 10 in Number and select radio button for O.UN (when you creating a PO it UOB automatically picks as CT)
Third line enter PALin Auom and enter 50 in Number and select radio button for D/l .UN (when u creating a delivery UOB picks as PAL ie pallets)
Fourth line enter EA or PC and enter 1 in Number and select radio button for S.UN (when u creating a Sales order UOB picks as EA or PC as u defined)

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.

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. -
Leave unit of measure for calculation type A empty
Hi Gurus,
We are in SRM Extended classic scenario with 5.0 version.
Here in SRM we have Procurement contact with process type Global Outline Agreement (GCTR).
Currently we are facing problem while amending the condition type in the contact line item. When we change the condition type for particular line item then getting error message "Leave Unit of Measure for calculation type A empty. (item 10).
On the line item the condition could look like this
Condition Price Start Date End Date
Price(Contract/Bid) 100 EUR 2010-02-22 2010-12-31
gross surcharge % 5,5 % 2010-02-22 2010-03-31
gross surcharge % 6,5% 2010-04-01 2010-06-30
gross surcharge % 8,5 % 2010-07-01 2010-12-31
when we try to add additional conditon like "gross surcharge %" then we got this error message
Leave unit of measure for calculation type A empty
if I delete all condition "Gross Surcharge%" then the error disapear and then I can try again, sometime we could create those condition without problems but offen we have this error.
Can any one help me to get rid of this error message.
Thanks In Advance,
Jakob Banginitially you could do multiple periods but when you change the condition it is not allowing you.
can you make inactivate that andd new line item and add same item with new condition
(SRM might have limitations)
I tried this works for me

Multiple Units of Measurements for a single item
Hi all,
How do I maintain multiple units of measurements for a single Item/ I have a scenario where purchase orders are being made for sand in Metric Tons, Tons, Kgs and Cubit Feets. Each measurement is being used at each construction site of the company but the item is single sand. One more problem is here with the material reconciliation of stock since it is maintained in different units of measurement and conversion from unit to other is problematic.
Thanks

Unit of Measure for Cases issue
Hello all,
We are working with APO as the source system. In one of extractions we are getting cases information and the unit maintained there is CV. Now when i am trying to load the data into BW it is saying that for CV SID generation problem. When i checked the T006 table there when I give CV in the unit of measurement and display the content it gives me a record with CS. When i check the SPRO setting for unit of measurement, I found there is an entry wherein Unit is CS, Commercial Unit is CV. Now if i want to resolve this issue what is procedure i need to follow.

Why do units of measurement in paragraph tab and character tab differ?
Why do units of measurement in paragraph tab and character tab differ?
In Indesign CC 2014.1 when I set the units for type to be in points and all other measurements apart from strokes to be in mm, why are the units for the paragraph tab also in mm?
In both Photoshop CC and Illustrator CC, whatever units you assign for type also are used for the paragraph settings, which makes sense.
I want everything to do with type to be in points and pretty much everything else in mm, yet the only way I can have the paragraph tab units as points is for all measurements to be in points!
Does this sound right or is something wrong with my Indesign?
Thanks

They are made by Adobe, and Adobe has different teams for different applications.
Sometimes the same feature in multiple applications is designed slightly differently than the way other teams would handle it.
This may be down to:
Time constraints to get the feature in - compared to other top priority items
Having to make a decision on whether to do it one way or another way - 50/50 type thing
Due to the limitations of how the program was designed and how the feature ties in with other features etc.
And many many more programming reasons. It may be the guy doing the photoshop changes wasn't as well versed in typography needs as the indesign guy.
Who knows - but there are differences in lots of areas between all apps. -
