Hi There,

I have the following question:

We have quite a few articles of which the order unit regularly changes. Sometimes an order unit contains 6 selling units, then the supplier changes it to 10. Each time this happens, we have to create a new article in SAP Retail, although for the end consumer the product remains exactly the same. Creating a new article means additional work in different other systems, f.e. our planogram system, where the old item must be replaced by the new one.

Is there a way in SAP Retail where we can avoid creating a new article when the order unit changes? Would a structured article with different logitical variants solve this issue? Is there anyone with some suggestions?

Thanks,

Ton

Hi,

why don't you create only a new UoM with not 10 piece for the same end consumer product?
