Warehouse

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

In material master, warehouse view when I am entering a big  value in Loading equipment quantity 2 for an alt unit of measure which also has a big conversion factor, I am getting an ABAP dump saying: Overflow error in program SAPLMG12.

Ex: LE quantity 2 = 25555, conversion factor = 2499.

Is there an OSS note for this issue?

Thank you,

Naga

you hit probably a technical limitation.

the loading equipment quantity is internally managed in base unit of measure of that material.

Formula: P_MLGN_LHMG1 = P_MLGN_LHMG1 * MEINH-UMREN / MEINH-UMREZ

Hi Jurgen,

I did debug the program and did get the formula you had mentioned above.

So how I do overcome this dump?

1. The result field of type P is too small for the result.

2. The result or a intermediate result has more than 31 decimal places.

you can contact SAP, however I do not really believe that you can get them to extend the field length, but it might be worth a try.

Dear Naga,

Rather than changing the field length (this might have bigger impact in transactions), why can't you change the units into a higher metric. For e.g., 2499 U can be converted as 2.499 KU where KU is a kilo unit. Another e.g., 2499cm can be considered as 2.499m. Just another angle to this! Kindly let me know if there are other challenges.

Truly,
