Weight unit of a Warehouse Number

Hi,
While defining the control parameters of a Warehouse number, I have come across with a field called Weight Unit & Partial picking.
With the SAP help data, i am not able to understand the real functionality of these particular fields.
It could be highly appreciable if any one helps me in getting the real functionality of these fields.

V-T3000-TEILS
Multiple processing can be used for transfer order creation for outbound deliveries.

Prerequisites
Allowing Partial Processing of Transfer Requirements or Deliveries
You have activated partial processing for multiple processing in the Customizing for Warehouse Management under Master Data ® Define Control Parameters for Warehouse Number. In doing so, you allow the system to partially process transfer requirements or deliveries in multiple processing. In this case you only create a transfer order for a partial quantity of the original item in the reference document if it is not possible to create a TO for the complete item.

F1 help for the field:
Weight Unit
Unit referring to the gross weight or net weight of the material.
Procedure
All weights are managed in the warehouse in the unit of weight that you specify here. In the case of movements, the material weight is converted to this unit of weight and updated in the storage bins.
The capacity check by weight is also made in this unit. Here, the maximum accuracy is 1/1000 of this unit of weight.
You should not change this unit of weight during productive operation since all weights relate to it and would therefore be incorrect. Should it be necessary to change it, you must correct the existing data by running report RLS10200 afterwards.
Examples
If you choose too small a unit of weight, there is a risk of field overflows with "heavy" materials and totals.
If you choose too large a unit of weight, large rounding errors may occur. This can result in problems with "light" materials in the case of capacity checks by weight in particular.
I think it's clear: SAP uses this unit of weight to calculate the weights of goods in storage bins and it also uses it fo carry out capacity check in this unit.
As for capacity check:

Storage unit activation for warehouse number

Hi,
User is facing two problems.
1.They could not go directly to TO screen after doing any warehouse management transactions.
2.In TO user wants to enter storage units options but could not find any list.
I could find that warehouse no which is assigned that storage location is not actived for storage unit management.
Can I delete this warehouse no. and copy new warehouse number which is active in storage unit management.
There are some TO already created for this warehouse no.How should I proceed in this issue.
Can we reverse TR and TO.
Please give some solutions
Thanks

Config: LE \ WM \ Master data \ define control parameters
Tick box bottom left.
Before creating a whole new WHS, in your Sandbox system try completing or cancelling every outstanding task related to the Warehouse e.g. TRs, PCNs, TOs etc. and then activate SUM as above and for applicable Storage Types (NOT interim ones). It might save you quite a bit of effort.
If it works (I've never tried it but don't see why it wouldn't) in Sandbox then also do in Development and Pre-Production, then do the same in Production over a weekend and get the Warehouse guys to complete all operations, transport settings across and you're done. Alternatively you can cancel outstanding operations but you then need to note and re-create.

How to get Storage unit and Warehouse number from Handling Unit.

hello all,
I have Handling unit and Material in my program as an input, using these two fields i have to get corresponding storage unit and ware house number, to pick up transfer order.
Can anybody explain me who can we get Storage Unit and Warehouse Number from Handling Unit.
I know we can pull transfer order from table LTAK & LTAP using warehouse number.
But i dont understand how to get warehouse number from handling unit.
There is table LSUTO which has warehouse and Handling unit relation, but in our system there is not data maintained in that table. So, i was just wondering how can i get warehouse number from the given handling unit number.
please guide me
thanks

Hi ,
Check out the handling unit item table VEPO. You got storage location(LGORT) in it.
Reward points if it was useful.

Gross Weight Unit of Measure (MARA-GEWEI) SAP ECC 6.0

Hi There,
We use something called IPC for sales over the Internet. IPC is showing the customers our materials from the material master in KG and we need to show them in LB. The reason this is happening is because the materials are created in Europe and there is an automatic creation of the material to our system in the US. We would like to know if there is something we can do in our system to convert the Gross Weight Unit from KG to LB in an automatic way using some kind of conversion rule? What does T006 has to do with this if there is any relationship?
Thanks for your help.
Luis.

KG and LB belong both to dimesion MASS
KG is the SI unit.
in any unit belonging to dimension MASS you can enter a fix conversion rate to the SI unit KG.
this conversion will then automatically pulled if you enter the LB as alternative unit in your materials.
Further you can call a function module UNIT_CONVERSION_SIMPLE to convert from one unit to the other

Function module for converting weight unit to another unit.

What is the function module for converting weight unit to another unit.
I want to convert LB to KG.
Tried with fm UNIT_CONVERSION_SIMPLE.
INPUT                           100
NO_TYPE_CHECK
ROUND_SIGN                      X
UNIT_IN                         LB
UNIT_OUT                        KG
But there is no output.
Can some one help.

The trick here is we need decalre input output with non-character data type like VBPLK-BRGEW.
We can test using normal SE37.
I tested and this program worked fine:
   data: UNIT_IN LIKE T006-MSEHI,
       UNIT_OUT LIKE T006-MSEHI,
       output LIKE VBPLK-BRGEW,
       input LIKE VBPLK-BRGEW.
input = 10.
CALL FUNCTION 'UNIT_CONVERSION_SIMPLE'
       EXPORTING
            INPUT    = INPUT
            UNIT_IN = 'LB' "UNIT_IN
            UNIT_OUT = 'KG' "UNIT_OUT
       IMPORTING
            OUTPUT   = OUTPUT.
write: output.

Handling unit mangement without Warehouse management

Hello,
We are working on a scenario,wherein we are planning to use handling unit management without warehouse management.Does HU management and WM go hand in hand?
Do you foresee any inconsistencies if HU management is implemented without WM?
What does SAP recommend?
Thanks,
Pankaj

Hello,
WM and HU functionality are independent solutions. WM and HU could be implemented based on your business scenarios. It is pretty common to have WM and HU solutions for the business.
It will be sort of difficult to answer about inconsistency in HU solution without WM. Based on what process you define and what are the intricacies involved you may or may not have true inconsistencies.
You could refer to the SAP best practices help library and see if for your business scenario SAP has a solution and that way you could best define an integrated solution.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

Different Weight Unit in Sales Order

Dear Experts
We are doing a Global Rollouts for Europe and Americas on a common System .
My Clients is using same Sales unit for Europe and Americas but has a requirement to have Sales Order and Purchase Order Weight Unit as Kilo Gram for European Sales / Purchase Organization and Weight Unit as Pound for American Sales / Purchase Organization .
As Weight Unit is associated with Unit of Measurement then wanted to know how can we achieve different Weight Units for different Sales Organization . Customer and Vendor for European and Americas region will be different .
With Regards
Rohit

Hi,
When you sell the same material for different company codes, there should a material view of the respective sales organisation/distribution channel combination. For this combination, when the material is extended, please maintain the sales unit of measure.
Also in Additional data (You can go here by clicking the additional data button at the top left of the material master), in alternate unit of measurement (second tab), you can maintain the unit conversion between all the sales units to weight in KGs. Thus you can handle the requirement of converting any sales unit to weight in kgs.
Hope this helps

Finding warehouse number with storage location

Hi all,
How can I find the warehouse number given the material, plant and the storage location? Thanks in advance.

You need to join two tables :
MARD - MATNR,LGORT,WERKS
MLGN - Here you get Ware house number
Check with LS24,LS26 Transaction and also check with MLGT Table
Thanks

One warehouse number, two number ranges?

Hi all,
I have a scenario where an external system creates some of the transfer orders in a warehouse, while others are created through normal WM processes.
I would like to be able to give the external system a specific number range to use, separate from the standard range.
Standard system only allows assignment of one number range to a warehouse number for TO.
The external system will communicate with ECC through IDOCs.
Does anyone know if it is possible to set this up? Looking a enhancing the TO creation when triggered by the IDOC is a possiblility I guess?
Regards,
Mark.

Hi Mark,
Can you please check if you can manipulate the value of screen field V_T340DA-NUKTA thru' the function module used for the inbound idoc posting TO? You can maintain 02 number range as external with given range in SPRO. On execution of function module for Idoc above screen field value change to 02..the other number can be used.
Hope this will help.

Warehouse number from "Decentralized WMS" to "Centralized"

Hi all
We have implemented a warehouse number with Decentralized WMS.
ERP and WM are SAP systems.
Now, weu2019d like to integrate WM into the same ERP SAP system (convert a warehouse number from "Decentralized WMS" to "Centralized").
So, what shall we do?
Can we maintain the same warehouse number and do the customizing on it (deactivate Decentralized WMS and so on)? Or we must define a new one?
In both cases, (maintain the same warehouse number or define a new one) how can we transfer WM stock from decentralized to centralized?
Any suggest?
Thanks a lot
Michele

Hi Funky Tech.
Thank you for your answer, but my question is another.
We have already implemented a warehouse number as decentralized WMS.
Now we want to integrate it into ERP (centralized WMS).
So the questions are:
Can we maintain the same warehouse number and do the customizing on it (deactivate Decentralized WMS and so on)? Or we must define a new one?
In both cases, (maintain the same warehouse number or define a new one) how can we transfer WM stock from decentralized to centralized?
Thanks

System demands Weight unit as a mandatory field in material master

Hello friends,
When I create a material with only basic data view, the system doesnot require the weight unit field(in basicdata1 view) as a mandatory field, but when I try to create a material with salesorg1 view , it makes the weight unit filed as a mandatory field and also populates the weight unit field with the value as "KG" by default. Could any one please help me to find out where I can see the configuration and the default values.
Thanks,
Ramineni.

Hi Ramineni,
Plaese go through the menupath to conttol the field selection in the Material Master just like the fields controlled in customer master. Here you can select the required fields as mandatory, suppress or Required. I believe you need to take consideration of Material Type while doing this.
Spro->Logistics General->Material Master->Field Selection.
Consider the transactions : OMSR & OMS9.
Please let me know your thoughts.
Thanks and Regards,

Problem with TCODE PK02 with the warehouse number field.

Hello folks,
I have created a control cycle in the TCODE PK01. When I tried to change it it is not displaying the warehouse number that I have used while saving. Also here it is showing the warehouse number as a mandatory field.
I have input the warehouse number in the PK02 TCODE and saved. I am able to see the warehouse number value updated in the table also. But again if I try to enter the PK02 TCODE , it is displaying empty warehouse number and showing as a mandatory field.
Also in TCODE PK03 tcode , I am not able to see the warehouse number field I have saved.
Can anyone address on the below issues?:
1. how to configure the PK02 warehouse number mandatory field settings and
2. Populating the warehouse number field in the PK02 and PK03.
Thanks,
Ramineni.
