Hi Experts,

Looking at Unit of Measure default, I am wondering when unit of issue might have a different value than order unit?

It is the concept that just follows the requirements of a business.

I can manage my material in KG (stock keeping unit = base unit of measure), but  I need to order in Barrels as this is the usual unit my vendors use to supply me.

since the material  is a fluid and it is easier for the production folks to consume it in liter they want liter as unit of issue, which especially makes sense if a liter is not equal to a KG and reduces the error reasons in case a user would need to convert liter to Kg on paper to be able to enter KG finally in SAP while they consume it as liter.

Hello,

You can use this field when you want to have this unit in WM transaction (Go to LS26 and see total quantity for example)

For exemple, your base unit of mesure is KG and you have no value in unit of mesure.

If you have 200 KG in stock, you will see 200 KG in stock.

Know, you fill the field unit of issue with PC and you say 1 PC = 200 KG.

Go to LS26, you will know see that you have 1 PC in total quantity.

This logical is available for all WM transaction.
