Unit of measure in availability overview

[Former Member]

Hi

The question is about the possibility to change the unit of measure displayed in the availability overview during a sales order creation as you can do in transaction MD04.

The problem is that if you set a quantity in the sales order in a alternative unit of measure (for instance Boxes) and if you check the availability, the systems shows the quantities in the base unit of measure (e.g. Pieces), so it is quite complicated to make the conversion, because you do not have the information on the screen.

Has anybody solved that issue?

thanks a lot!

Dear Friend,

There is no standard setting for this so i think you can use exits for this purpose.
