Problem with the fiells MEINS(PO Unit ) and MENGE(Quantity) .

[Former Member]

Hi experts

I am having problem with the fiells MEINS(PO Unit ) and MENGE(Quantity) of the datasource 2lis_02_acc .

I have created custom cube and have mapped the fiels MEINS to infoobject 0PO_UNIT and MENGE(Quantity) to infoobject 0CPQUAOU.

Now the data is successfully loaded in the cube but the values of the above 2 fields are getting changed.

In r3 the value for MEINS is "AU","EA" , "H" etc but this field value is getting converted to "LE" in the cube and also the field MENGE(Quantity

) in r3 is for example "1" it is getting converted to 3 in the cube. do u have any idea what is the problem.

The rule type is direct assingment and there is no routine .

Any clues.

Thank you.

Hmm, your system should consider the alternative UOM maintain in the material master.

Each material in SAP has its standard, base unit of measure (stored in MARA-MEINS). To allow using alternative units, those can be maintained per material in table MARM. So, assuming the Base UoM is only considered (for LE), it converts material quantity from one unit to another, most likely from alternative units to the base one. So, changing that settings must solve. http://goo.gl/JuZlm

Alternative steps:

1.Goto MM42 (Assuming there's no BAPI req?)

2. change po unit from basic unit to other -> save OK

3. change po unit from other to basic unit -> save OK

Also, MD63 shows all data in the base unit of measure.

If you want to explore basic steps, goto RSD1 > Additional > Alternative UoM.
