Purchase requisition takes quantity in SO with Base unit, not sales unit

[Former Member]

Hi everyone,

In Third party process, I create a SO with sales unit CAY (base unit is KG). Hovever, when create PR, the system take quantity from SO with base unit, not Sales unit ( as I prefer)

How can we fix this problem?

Check any purchase info record is maintained for the material in t.code ME12 and check the unit of measure in it. Probably the system is taking the UOM from there. Also check in material master ->Purchasing tab any value is maintained in order unit field. Make this blank and try.

Dear Shiva Ram,

This material don't have an Purchase infor record and field Order Unit in master data (Purchasing tab) is blank.

I don't know this is the root problem or not. Can you tell me more detail?

Hi,

Please check  the material master data, Sales org data -1 and check the sales unit and conversation factor.

I don't mantain Sales unit in Sales org data -1 because sales unit is very flexible. I don't think it is the problem.

Please maintain the sales unit in material master and check.

It looks you may need to use user exit EXIT_SAPFV45E_002 in include LXVVAU16 (program SAPLXVVA) to pass the sales UOM into purchase req.

Based on Procurement, the Base UoM is set.

Say, Base UoM = KG, UoM in which stock in maintained. But sold in CAY.

So, from all the vendors the material will be procured and stock with UoM Kg.

Therefore for your requirement, you can maintain ME11 (Info Record) with

- Order Unit (CAY)

- Its Conversion Rule (for  KG & CAY)

for the material & vendor.

Puschase requition isn't relationship with Infor Record. So, I don't think it work

Dear Anand,

Of course Conversion Factor is already maintained in Master data.
