Hi tiff512:

The way is:

SAP NetWeaver > General Settings > Check Units of Measurement.

The help documentation says the following in relation to the creation of new units of measure:

"If required, define new units of measurement according to the international system of units (SI) with the menu function Unit of meaurement -> Create.

Here you have to make make specifications for:

Display (including a descriptive Units of measurement text)

Conversion (not applicable to units of measurement without dimensions)

Data exchange (EDI) (optional)

Application parameters"

I hope it is helpful to you.

Hi,

UOM can be included in the following manner for your case.

SPRO->General Setting->Check Unit of Measurement

Select 'Volume' from the dropdown -> click Units of measurement-> add your required UOM.

Now while creating operand you will be able to view the new UOM.

Hope this serve the purpose.

Thanks,

S
