ALE message type WMTORD sending ST meins

135 Views

good morning/afternoon to all,

we are in the process of setting up a 3rd party warehouse/miniload system and they connect using ALE. the 3rd party system is not a SAP system. our system is 4.7C. we are being asked to use this message type (WMTORD - standard) to send transport orders. they receive the idoc successfully with correct information, except for the unit of measure field meins. they receive the untranslated unit of measure ST, instead of EA.

is there a fix for this? can this be changed with standard code, or is a user exit needed. and, if the user exit is needed, why does for example the message type MATMAS send a EA and not the ST? i do have the global unit or measure ST setup to send EA in spro.

thanks in advance.
