Unit of Measurements of for Service Materials

Hi,
We want to create UOM for Service Materials like Per Well Per Month, Lumpsum.
In SPRO-> General Settings-> Check Units of Measurement, do we need to create Dimension, ISO Codes before creating the UOM.
While creating the UOM, what should we maintain in Commercial, Technical, Mesa. Unit Text. columns for the UOMs like Per Well Per Month, Lumpsum.
Pls. guide.

Unit of measure conversion for CIN is not relevant for pricing

During creation of Ad item type order, when we enter the planned ad size e.g. A CO (Columns) x B IN (Inches), the system is showing a message "Unit of measure conversion for CIN is not relevant for pricing" and pricing is not determined in the Billing Data Set. However if the planned ad size is maintained as A CO (Columns) x B MM (Millimeters), there is no impact to pricing conditions.
Any light how to fix this issue?
Thanks,
Suseela. V

Dear Suseela,
You need to maintain Unit of conversion using transaction code JH51. You have to follow the path Logistics-Advertising Management-Master Data-Conditions-Order/Billing Document-UM for Pricing.
Here you can maintain combination using Booking Unit, Content Component, Design type and assign Unit of Measure to get relevant pricing into billing set conditions.
Hope it will help. Thanks!

Transfer prices for service materials??

Hi All,
We have activated Material ledger to have transfer pricing. We want to maintain the transfer prices for service materials (with material type DIEN). But since quantity and value updates are not possible for material type DIEN ML is not activated for these materials and hence its not possible to maintain transfer prices either.
Is there any other way of maintaining transfer prices for service materials?

Unit o measure issue for blanket orders

I am trying to create a blanket order for cost center using catagory for blanket order. When I enter Unit of measure say "each" it replaces with "LE" and gives me an error- " Unit of measure LE not defined- please check your input" when I go into details of message - it tells me that " The key for the unit of measure you entered is not defined in table T006." and "Define the unit of measure through Customizing (Materials Management)."
next when I look for this table it tells me that this is not active. At this time I can not save the PR.
Can anyone tell me where is this config in MM?
Thanks for your help in advance
Raj

Hi,
If the UOM of LE is there you neeed to check what is in the commercial and technical col;umns for it.
In SAP the LE is the internal code for the UOM and NOT the one that is entered in transactions.
LE normally has a technical name of AU and it is AU that should be used in the UOM fields on requisitions and POs etc. NOT the LE.
Try using the UOM that is in the technical column of LE.

Unit of measure missing for LagDuration in ES for Project Network Activity?

Hello,
I just tried the Enterprise Service "Read Project Activity" (ProjectProcessingManageProjectIn) from ESM ERP 604 in the ES workplace. The field LagDuration in the NetworkRelationship consists of only a number, but no unit of measure. I changed the unit from Hours to Seconds via the Web Portal and watched the results of the Service: the number did not change although one hour should result in different lag time than one second. IMHO the unit of measure is missing in the service definition. Or am I getting something wrong?
Regards,
Uwe.

It is even worse: There are several duration fields in the "Manage Project In" Service Interface (e.g. Activity BaseDuration). In the responses these fields always contain a naked number (no unit of measure). In the WSDL these fields are of type "Duration" which has a pattern restriction of "PnYnMnDTnHnMnS" - not an int type! In a request if you pass e.g. "PT20M" (which is a valid Duration according to the samples) you will get a nasty parse error. Can anybody explain? Has anybody worked around this issue?

Unit of Measure(UOM) for PO and Packing

Dear all,
we have got issue about UOM for Purchase order and Packing.
When we create PO with vendor then we use UOM is set for example: sofa.
but when we GR from Vendor the storekeeper check artice follow UOM is Set. (packing).
pls help us

Dear,
Basing on your post - your stock keeping unit is SET.
Purchase order is SOFA.
Go to material master and maintain basic UOM as SET and Order unit as SOFA.
Whenever you are raising PO using this material, the PO UOM will be SOFA. Maintain the conversion factors if applicable.
One more way in PR - Source of supply tab you can mention purchase organization and order unit as SOFA (this wihthout making changes in material master). But everytime create PR indentor has to pay attention towards this entry.

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.

Mauro

Unit of Measure for Services

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.

Shrikant

Alternate unit of measure for service master

Dear all
I have same service but different unit of measure like hr, day, month, pls explain how make alternative unit of measure in service master?

Hello,
I am afraid I must confirm that the system is working in this way...
It is not possible to define an alternative unit of measure in the service master in R/3.
If you want to create a purchase order with another unit of measure, you have to create a seperate service master with this unit of measure.
Thanx & Sorry

Alternate unit of measure in service entry sheet,

Dear All,
I have created service master with unit of measure MON(MONTH), and I have entered alternate unit of mesure 1MON=30 DAYS,
I have created service PO with unit of measure MON, In service entry sheet the unit of measure is MON, I want to change the unit of measure to DAY, BUT in service entry sheet the unit of measure is MON and the filed is desabled, I cannot change the unit on measure to DAY, Please tell me how to change the unit of measure,
With regards,
ARABBAS

Hi,
Change of unit of measure in service entry is restricted as below
Since all data is updated in the base unit of measure, your entry is particularly important for the conversion of alternative units of measure. A quantity in the alternative unit of measure can only be shown precisely if its value can be shown with the decimal places available. To ensure this, please note the following:
The base unit of measure is the unit satisfying the highest necessary requirement for precision.
The conversion of alternative units of measure to the base unit should result in simple decimal fractions (not, for example, 1/3 = 0.333...).
So logically there is a constraint for what you are trying to do

Issue: Proportion/produciton unit of measure NO is invalid for item 900001.

Hi All,
Issue: Proportion/produciton unit of measure NO is invalid for item 900001.
Here we have MTO Scenario: In outbound delivery when we do batch split & batch determination we are getting the above error.
Consider the following settings: at MM01 - Prodution/Proportion unit data is maintained with a characterstic specific to batch. Means Batch specific unit of measurement. In Work scheduling view produciton unit, unit of issue are maintained as 'NO'. All these settings are same for all material codes.
Please suggest us why we are getting the issue for perticular material coce.
Info: We resolve the issue by adding one more line item in the sales order & do the transfer posting the stock from line item to line item. But this is not the permanent solution.
Regards
Chowdary

I believe the error message no is VL 382 (Proportion/product unit of measure & invalid for item &)
You need to double click on the error message flashing on the status bar to get the error number.
I believe long text for the error message is self explainatary. Refer it and make necessary changes to resolve the issue.
Diagnosis
You want to use a proportion / product unit for an item.
You are not allowed to change the unit of measure into a proportion / product unit if:
- The following exist for a sales document item:
Preceding documents
Subsequent documents
- You are processing a scheduling agreement for the component supply industry
- You change the target unit of measure in a scheduling agreement item (and the sales unit is not a proportion / product unit)
- You are processing a customer requirements plan
- The following exist for a delivery item:
Preceding documents
Subsequent documents
Batch split items
- You are processing a batch split item
Procedure
Use a different unit of measure.
If you want to change the target unit of measure into a proportion / product unit in a scheduling agreement item, you need to change the sales unit accordingly. The system then sets the target unit of measure to the same as the sales unit.
Further, if you are working on older version, refer SAP Note 364206 - VLSP:indic.for proportion/product quantities deletd.

Unit of Measure issue - Need to be changed from volume to no dimention.

Hi Experts,
           I have a unit of measure as TB, which is tube. This is a volume unit. The user want to change this as "Pls have this be corrected as a non-dimensional unit of measure ". For this what is impact on system.
          Precautions to be taken to change this unit of measure. what are all we have to do. like closing all open POs, PR, RFQ,SO , production order, planned orders etc.
          And what about the stocks for these materials which are using these UOM.
          Please suggest me, what are all we have to do, before going for a change.
Thanks & Regards,
Poorna.

Dear,
The base unit of measurement for a material cannot be changed due to movements history exists. This will result to inconsistency in reports and data.
Suggested to create similar new material with new user desired UOM.
Please find the SAP HELP on this as below:
Diagnosis: You wanted to change the base unit of measure. However, you can do so only under certain circumstances, including the following:
- If there are no stocks of the material in the current period and in the previous period.
- If there are stocks in the previous period, you can clear them as follows:
a) Post the stock in the previous period to the current period (for example, using movement type 561 Posting date 30.06.XX ) so that the stock for the previous period is the same as the stock for the current period.
b) Clear the stock with the posting date in the previous period (for example, using movement type 562 Posting date 30.05.XX).
- If no purchase requisitions, purchase orders, or scheduling agreements exist for the material.
Procedure : Choose Display errors to see why you cannot change the base unit of measure for this material.
The pushbutton Display errors appears only in dialog mode, not in data transfer or in mass maintenance. If this message appears in data transfer or in mass maintenance, and you want to know why the base unit of measure cannot be changed, access the material in dialog mode using the relevant transaction below, try to change the base unit of measure as required, and then choose Display errors:
Lastly, you can considered an Alternate Unit of Measure to do the Conversion from KG to Liter. You then could use your Alternate Unit of Measure as your
Purchased UoM and PLant UoM.
Given the level of activity sometimes required to change the base UOM, it often makes more sense just to add an alternative UOM on the material master.
Maintain the relationship between the Base UOM and the new UOM on the material master and then continue to procure the material in the new UOM rather than the base UOM. If stocks exist I would think it is unlikely that their existing UOM is incorrect as they must have been receipted in that UOM at some point.

Syed Hussain.

APO key figures - units of measure

I am using APO V5.1.
Via RSA1 I have created a key figure of data type Quantity and unit = 0UNIT.
I have assigned this key figure to my planning area and planning book.
The planning area has unit of measure = CAS, and this is the unit of measure shown for my new key figure in interactive planning.
How can I change the unit of measure for my new key figure to D(ays)?
Thanks for any advice...

Datta,
Thanks for this reply.
I have followed your advice...
I have a key figure with data type 'Number'.
In interactive planning, this key figure is appearing with a blank uom.
In the planning book design, on the 'key figure attributes' tab, I cannot however make any changes to the key figure attributes including uom, as they are greyed out.
Any ideas on this?
Thanks...
