UoM conversion for decimal quantities

Bharath84 — Mon, 28 Oct 2013 16:44:57 GMT

Hi All,

For sales doc having UoM other than EA(each) it should be converted to EA.

For sales doc 900807278 the Quantity(FKIMG) has value 0.120 and Sales UoM(VRKME) as SP.

call function 'MD_CONVERT_MATERIAL_UNIT'

exporting

i_matnr = it_vbrk-matnr

i_in_me = it_vbrk-vrkme

i_out_me = 'EA'

i_menge = it_vbrk-fkimg "Quantity

importing

e_menge = it_vbrk-fkimg1 "Converted Qty

exceptions

error_in_application = 1

meinh_not_found = 2

others = 3.

After this FM, the quantity is not converting. Is this due to the quantity in decimals.

How to convert to EA and the quantity(FKIMG). Please give me the solution.

Thanks,

Haritha

You Ask:

"Is this due to the quantity in decimals."

I would have to say no. Is the FM perhaps returning sy-subrc = 2?

Hi Haritha,

I have not used the MD_CONVERT_MATERIAL_UNIT, but I have used UNIT_CONVERSION_SIMPLE and I have not had any issues.

Give it a try.

Steve

Hi,

I few things:

it_vbrk is suppost to be the header table, so you dont matnr and others fields..check your code.

Second,

you can use write, sth like this

write it_vbrk-fkimg to l_quantity unit it_vbrk-vrkme.

Hi Neal,

Yes, it is returning sy-subrc = 2.

So do you understand that this is the whole answer to your problem? If EA is not in MARM, then your can't convert to it...
