Dear gurus,
my sampling size is fixed 250 gm,
now after GRN stock goes to QA32,when i am checking system is not calculating sample size.
raw material is recieved in MT.
please see the below table
Insp. Lot Qty 0.250 MT
Actual lot qty 0.250
Sample size 0 MT

I believe Sachin is correct. Your BUOM is entirely too high.
That said, why can't you just make this a fixed sample size of 1? Does it really matter? Sure it looks cool to calculatethis stuff, and for many materials we need it.
How many products do you have where your BUOM is a metric ton? You aren't going to track that material in grams so why even bother having it in the Inspection lot? What business benefit is it giving to the techs in the lab? My guess is they get a large bag or bottle of ore material. I doubt anyone is weighing this out to make sure there is exactly 250 g in the container.
Maybe they are, but my guess is any weighing to composite any samples is done by the lab and and not when the sample is collected.
Specific, accurate sampling calculations are usually only required for specific types of materials, high dollar value material, inventory control or for regulatory reasons.
You can't be requiring this calculation for inventory control. You can't be needing this to tell the people how and how much sample to collect. You probably only have one or two products like this and I'm pretty sure the sampling process is pretty much the same. "stick a bucket under a chute" or "scoop a bucket out of the truck or off the pile".
I have worked with several clients that used large qtys of ore's, (ore freighter size to daily truck deliveries, to mined ore), and we never bothered tracking ore samples in SAP.
Again, if there is a business reason that makes sense to do this, you'll have to first change your BUOM to KG and define alternate UOM of G and MT.

1. Check your inspection characteristic is required or not.
The sample size of inspection lot is calculated for required characteristics only.
2. Try to use the international unit (SI unit) like as G / KG / TO for automatic conversion.

Hi
How did u defined the sampling size as 250gm i.e. .00025MT comparing with your base unit of measure. If you are maintaining 3 decimal places for the measurement of weight then, your least count will be 1kg i.e. 0.001 MT. So, system is not able to show the sample size as 250gm which in turn rounding it to zero.
Thanks
Sachin

Where did you defined "gm" ?
you can try to put MT as unit in MIC & at task list header.
