Reply from Dutch on Jun 24 at 7:36 PM Hi Wasim, When trying to understand something conceptually I find it helps to think of it in terms of something that is close to me. Like beer. When beer is brewed it is put in bottles (base UoM). Then six bottles go in a sixpack, and four sixpacks go in a carton. The sixpack and carton are the alternative UoMs. Depending on my sales situation I could define the default sales UoM as either being a sixpack or a carton and I would set up a sales price for both the sixpack and the carton (where the carton would be slightly cheaper than 4 sixpacks). It is not likely I would sell individual bottles. Regards, Dutch

I know that alternative unit of measure is maintained in material master in additional data. but i am unable to comprehend its usage. Our requirement is for a material A having base UoM as kg is sold in a carton. Now material A is packed in bags of 5kg and then 10 of these bags are packed in a carton with total weight of 50kg. What we want to understand is that in a sale order if we book 100kg of material A, system should automatically convert the qty and unit to 2 cartons Thanks & Regards, Wasim | | Reply to this email to post your response. __.____._ | In the Spotlight Become a blogger at Toolbox.com and share your expertise with the community.
