Using the Order Unit from the Source List

1112 Views

Hi all,

My requirement is to have plant specific order units. My client has a regional purchasing organization responsible for purchasing at many sites, some of which order in different units.

As we know, the Order Unit in the material master is at a MARA (client) level, so we can only maintain one value here for a material. The Order Unit in the PIR is at a Material/Vendor level (general data) so we are unable to have plant specific values here either.

In the source list you can populate a different order unit, which from what I've read should meet my requirements, as this is at a plant level. I have variable order unit active in the PIR also.

The problem is, even with the entry in the source list, the PO still defaults to the UoM in the PIR.

Does anyone know what might be causing this?
