UOM Metres - KG issue

Hi Guys,
I have a quick question regarding Unit of Measures.
We store Material A in Meters and we purchase in KG
1 M = 9.7 KG  when MRP Runs it will create Reqs in Meters. When we convert the Reqs it will look at the conversion factor and create the PO in KG. The problem is that instead of it saying 9.7kgs i want it to say 10 kgs as vendors will send it to the nearest 10 kgs.
How will i do this in SAP? Is this something to with rounding profiles if so how do i do this?
Thanks
Adeel

hi,
If you want the conversion exactly. Please do so
in the
1 )Material Master-- Additional Data--->unitn of measure
better you can use  in Material Master which is applicable for all vendor .
2)If you are using Purchasing info record you can enter the converison factor in the second screen. It  will be vendor specific

  • Interfaces: UOM conversion rate issue

    Hi All,
    We have an outbound interface, which lists all the new subinventory transactions to the third party(then we are updating an attribute column in mtl_material_transactions, so that this record will not be send again). Third party makes all its transactions only in Saleable UOM(SUOM), where as we do all transactions in PUOM. The current logic we are following is, before we are going to send the inventory transactions, we will convert the quantity to SUOM and we will send it.
    Suppose if we transfer 15 quantity from subinventory A to B, and conversion rate between SUOM and PUOM is 5, then we will send 3 as quantity to third party. If the quantity is 12 in PUOM, then we will get 2.4. We are erroring out these type of quantities and informing these type of transactions through mail to the concerned person. We are not updating any attribute column for the error record. So it will always send trough email, as an error record for ever.
    Presently we have the code which i have explained. Suppose the concerned person after receiving the mail, If he do a reverse transaction from B to A, with quantity as 12, then this transaction will also be considered as an error record(as its quantity is 12). And how could the reverse transaction stops the primary transaction from sending through mail.
    We also have other outbound interfaces like move order information and pending PO information. For these interfaces, do we have any option to reverse these transactions. Please let me know.
    Many thanks in advance.

    Hi
    Have you verified EURX and M  for GBP to EUR is maintained as direct quot or indirect quot?
    like if it is direct               -           GBP -      1.2039   -     EUR
         if it is indirect         0.7155     GBP -                     -     EUR

  • KE30 - UOM Value Field required

    Hi,
    We have some FG Materials which are sold in PAC and EA. and PAC is Base Unit of Measure while EA is Alternative Unit of Measure.
    In PA Report - KE30, system is accurately showing Sales Quantity but business wants to see UOM of Sales Quantity as well, means they want to see how much of same material is sold in EA and PAC. I have created customized Value Field (VVXXX) for UOM but my issue is how can i derive Base Unit of Measure and Alternative Unit of Measure to this Value Field as i need to see this in PA Report. I have checked T-Code : KEDR but i am not able to map value field there.
    Kindly guide steps to solve this problem !!!
    Thanks in Advance
    Regards,
    Sapna

    I assume you have defined (at least) 3 quantity value fields in the operating concern.  (The value fields shown below can be named as per your convention and may differ from these.)
    VVIQT - Invoiced Quantity (in sales unit of measure) --> PAC or EA
    VVPAC - PAC Quantity (base unit of measure = stock keeping unit)
    VVEAQ - EA Quantity
    The first two fields above are easily mapped in customizing transaction KE4MI via path:
    SPRO > Controlling > Profitability Analysis > Flow of Actual Values > Transfer of Billing Documents > Assign Quantity Fields
    Assign the following:
    SD Qty Field     Name                       CO-PA Qty Field        Name
    FKIMG              Billed Quantity          VVIQT                       Invoiced Quantity
    FKLMG             Billing Qty in SKU     VVPAC                     PAC Quantity
    To derive the third field try using customizing transaction KE4MS via path:
    SPRO > Controlling > Profitability Analysis > Flow of Actual Values > Initial Steps > Store Quantities in CO-PA Standard Units of Measure
    Assign the following:
    Source Quantity      Description          Quantity     Description      Unit
    VVPAC                    PAC Quantity      VVEAQ      EA Quantity     EA
    The above option is to derive standard units of measure, such as KG.  I'm not 100% certain it will work in your requirement to access the alternative units of measure conversion rates for a material  (table MARM).  If this configuration does not derive the EA quantity and units as expected, then the user exit mentioned previously can be used to fill the fields with the converted amount and unit.

  • UoM changes in Inbound delivery after GR

    Hi Experts,
    I have created an Inbound Delivery for a PO. Now the UoM is correctly diplayed in VL33N. But when I Post GR, The UoM changes in Inbound delivery to selling UoM. Pls suggest me why this change of UoM happens?
    regards,
    Shetty123s

    Hi Shetty,
    Check UOM,unit of issue,Unit of sale and alternative UOM.
    If they are different then stock keeping unit,unit at the time of issueing,unit at time of saleing will be different.
    Hope u are clear.

  • New UoM - Getting dump error in SC

    Hi All,
    I have created a new unit of measure in R/3 and the same has been replicated to SRM through R3AR2 and R3AR4. I could see the unit of measure in SRM in txn: CUNI with all required values like ISO code, commercial box checked.
    Also while creating shopping cart, I am getting the uom in the list down. But when I select that uom and clicked on the Add to shopping cart I am getting a dump error. Still I could able to create shopping cart for all other uom without any issue. Porblem is only with the new uom.

  • Base unit of measure is different from Idoc to purchase order toSAP System.

    Hi Gurs,
    vendor send a purchase order for confirmation through EDI, the base unit of measure in the Idoc is PA( Parcel). For this same material the unit of measure in R/3 system is PC.( Piece). I got a error on this.I checked in CUNI, In Unit of measurement ST (PC) is already assigned to  unit PCE in EDI. But i dont want to change the  Conversion.I need this also and I want to create a new conversion ST(PC) is assign to PA( Parcel).
    Please help in this.
    Is it possible to maitainthe ISO-code PA into table Units of Measurement of Dimension?
    Edited by: Vadivel Karalam on Nov 1, 2010 1:13 PM

    Hi,
    You are getting the error because as part of the std ( For ALE/EDI) the unit of measurement that is maintained is PC whereas if you look at another unit of measure that you have mentioned, the std doesn't define anything under the ALE/EDI setup.
    Because of that all the conversions are coming with PC. So pls goto general settings and check unit of measure menu. There for each of your units, there is a section for ALE/EDI, set up the relevant UoM and the issue should get resolved.
    Hope it helps.

  • Bin problem

    Hi All,
    Can not Bin to Bin ...getting error message
    Can't explain why this is not working....may be because base unit is kg's?  This is material that has been returned to us.  The bin is the Delivery number (xxxxxxxxx) , but when try to take out the amount for one pallet you get the pop up message (requested amt couldnt be supplied.)    But , next I did a bin to bin with 1LB and it took....but then when I tried to bin it back....it left rounding amount?   So basically there are two questions.....why will it not let us break this down...and why did it leave rounding amount in bin for just a regular bin to bin?  I have shipping had to do a LT01 (manual TO) to get the amounts moved?
    When I did next bin to bin, I only did 1lb and it took?
    Then I bin to bin back the 1lb and it left material in bin

    hi
    check the UoM maintained for the materials. Base UoM,Conversion Uom for Purchase/Issue.

  • Issue related to changing UoM in PO which is created w.r.t PR

    Hi All
    I have Created a PR without material (i.e for Projects) and entered UoM as EA
    I have created a PO w.r.t PR and saved it.
    Now i want to change the UoM from EA to AU but system is giving me error.
    "Order unit AU not convertible into unit EA of requisition"
    So i tried changing in PR but in PR the UoM field is disabled so i cant change the UoM there also
    Can you plz guide me what could be the solution to resolve this issue.
    Thanks and regards
    shailesh

    hi..
    UoM cant be changed...
    It can be chaged only if..
    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) 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).
    If no purchase requisitions, purchase orders, or scheduling agreements exist for the material
    So. please all these..
    Thnks..

  • Excise UOM Issue

    Hi All
    I am facing the UOM issue while creating excise invoice. Actually my client is creating Commercial invoice in Sqm & excise Invoice in KG i.e. different UOM for comm & excise invoice. Now when i create excise invoice through J1IIN, I cannot change the UOM from sqm to kg.
    Please suggest how can i make different UOM in excise & comm invoive.
    I have maintained both these UOMs along with the conversion factor in material master.
    Thanks
    Rishi

    Hi Rishi,
    Can you pls explain the exact process of creating excise invoice with different UoM as im also facing the same problem.
    Which document u have taken as reference? I tried taking billing document but its not accepting the values. Pls reply.

  • Unit of Issue vs UoM

    Hi Gurus
    We have a scenario, where in we are maintaining , diff  UoM for the Base unit & unit of issue in the material master.
    Our legacy team finds it easy to maintain the stock in unit of issue. how will it impact initial stock loading ?
    Muthu

    Hi
    Initial stock is always maintained in the Stock keeping unit that is base UOM.
    Unit of issue will be taken only when issue related movements are performed
    If you are thisnking to change the UOM now after uplaoding the stock, it may not be possible. You need to remove the stock & then reload it with Unt of issue.
    Thanks & Regards

  • UOM issue

    hi,
    Here I am explaining the issue
    In  system A -
    material A001
    Base unit of measure = EA
    In system A u2013
    material A001
    Base unit of measure = PC
    UOM is maintained differently between SYSTEM A and B.
    In B we have maintained additional unit of measure LIKE 1EA = 1PC
    Initially we were trying to correct the UOM as EA instead of PC so to match with A system, but that is not possible to change.
    In system A  they have not maintained additional UOM like as above PC=EA. And it is not possible to maintain they have told due to PC is not available as UOM in the A system.
    SYSTEM A side they confirmed that SO got generated in A system without any issue.
    After SO generated in A, buyer supposes to find an order acknowledgement in PO in SYSTEM B, but that is missing. So there is I-DOC fail.
    so i check the error of IDOC, i found error message 'Order units differ'. Standard code to check VALUE OF UOM OF idoc(seg E1EDP01-MENEE). It used function module 'IDOC_INPUT_ORDRSP' -> subroutines 'maintain_data_ordrsp' like 'IF yekpo-meins NE fekpo-meins.' .
    Can anybody adivise me how to fix this error?
    thank you !!!!!

    Hi SS,
    You can not change the UOM once the P.O.are closed. u can use alternative conversions method.

  • UOM Convertion in GR Issue

    Hello Gurus,
    I have a material that have the next UOM:
    1 PC (BUM) = 3 BAG
    When I make a GR (mov. 261) for this material in 1 BAG (UOM at the BOM) the system makes the convertion to PC and discounts 0.333. See the next example:
    Initial Stock:         1        PC = 3 BAG
    GR ( - 1 BAG):    0.667 PC = 2.001 BAG
    So, at the end I have a little surplus that obviously doesn't exists.
    Is there any possibility for fix this? Can the system discounts 1/3 instead of 0.333?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi
    I once had this issue in one of my projects. I'm afraid, as far as I know, this is the standard SAP, UoM can only accomodate 3 digits of decimals.
    Thus, when you define the Base UoM not with the smallest unit, you will face this kind of case where SAP will round the qty, resulting in an excess in stock (when physically it doesn't exist).
    My advice is, you should define the smallest unit as the base UoM, so this problem will not arise.
    Or, for material which already have this problem, you should do adjustment at least every month for this qty rounding problem.

  • Alternative UoM issue

    Hi Gurus
    material A - Base UoM = LB
    component B - Base UoM = LB, Alt UoM = PC (conversion 1PC = 10 LB)
    I am trying to create a BOM (CS01) for material A: with components B.
    And I'm receiving this error:
    Unit of measure PC not supported for material B in plant 000X
    Message no. 29175
    Diagnosis
    You have entered a unit of measure for a component or variable-size item which is not defined.
    System Response
    The unit of measure entered is checked against settings in the IMG (Global settings -> Unit of measurement). This table contains all the units of measure that are supported in the system.
    If the item is a material, the system also checks whether the entered unit of measure corresponds to the unit of issue or base unit of measure in the material master.
    For variable-size items, the item entry screen and the overview also allow the you to enter the unit "piece" (Var-size item unit).
    Procedure
    Check your entries.
    Delete your entry for the unit of measure.
    If you have entered a material as an item, the system enters the unit of issue from the material master, if there is one. If not, the base unit of measure from the material master appears.
    If no material is entered in the item, the system takes the unit "piece" as a default.
    Can someone please help me in resolving this issue? Thanks

    dear friend,
    you could run MM02 for your component B on plant 000X and add the unit of measure PC (in 'Units of measure' TAB)
    good luck

  • UoM issue due to multiple backend systems

    Hi All,
    We have multiple backend systems hooked up with the SRM system. One issue that we have is that many of the UoMs are different in the backend systems. For example, for THOUSANDS, we have TH and THO in different systems. As part of optimization we intend to include only 1 entry per UoM in SRM box.
    The problem is if we put TH as the unit, then if it is chosen by a user linked to the backend system that does not have this Commercial unit, then the Shopping Cart fails when trying to create a follow-on document.
    Any advice how we can get this resolved will be greatly appreciated.
    Best Regards
    Gaurav

    Hi Gaurav,
    Common problem when using multiple back-ends, which can be resolved rather easily.  The best way to solve this is by a business change. That isu2026.  synchronize the use of the UoMu2019s throughout the organization.  This would be the most elegant solution. All back-ends will then have the same valueu2019s in their respective CUNI tables.
    Off course the feasibility of this will depend on your organizational structure and the hitting the u2018right stringsu2019 in order to get every one to understand the importance of this.
    As a back-up an other solution would be to create a Z-table which will translate the UoM used in the SRM system to the corresponding UoM in the respective back-endsu2026.. The table will have three columns.  u2018SRM UoMu2019 u2013 u2018Back-end Systemu2019 u2013 Back-end UoM.  Depending on the implementation scenario U use, you can have the interface to the back-end carry out the translation. For this you can use the available Badiu2019s: BBP_CREATE_BE_PO_NEW, BBP_CREATE_BE_RQ_NEW, BBP_CREATE_BE_RS_NEW
    Downside of this solution will be the extra maintenance effort for the Z-table. Best choice in my perspective would be the business change.
    Kind Regards,

    Thanks in advance.
    I already posted this SRM shopping cart and i just posted to get more inputs reg. this

    you have put too many details ..
    this error is simple in the fact that there are a few mandatory fields that needs to be transferred from MDM to SRM SC
    The following fields are required fields in all cases:
    u2022 Either NEW_ITEM-DESCRIPTION[n] or NEW_ITEM-MATNR[n] must be filled. Only one of the two should be filled.
    u2022 NEW_ITEM-QUANTITY[n]
    The following fields are required fields depending on conditions:
    u2022 NEW_ITEM-UNIT[n] if NEW_ITEM-MATNR[n] has not been filled
    u2022 NEW_ITEM-CURRENCY[n] if NEW_ITEM-PRICE[n] has been filled
    u2022 NEW_ITEM-EXT_SCHEMA_TYPE[n] if NEW_ITEM-EXT_CATEGORY_ID[n] or NEW_ITEM-EXT_CATEGORY[n] are used
    u2022 NEW_ITEM-EXT_QUOTE_ID[n] if NEW_ITEM-EXT_QUOTE_ITEM[n] has been used
    u2022 NEW_ITEM-CONTRACT[n] if NEW_ITEM-CONTRACT_ITEM[n] has been used
    All other fields are optional.
    check in the catalog OCI mappings if these mandatory fields are mapped.
    if they look fine : then make sure that the values in those mandatory fields are also maintained in the SRM side
    for eg : if Prod cat of R01 is maintained and sent from MDM : then the same R01 must be present in SRM
                 if UoM ISO of EA  is maintained and sent from MDM : then the same EA (not EACH) must be present in SRM
    this will solve ur issue.
    thanks
