Hi Arun,

you can get Base Unit of Measurement from table T006.

Enter MSEHI(Internal Unit of Measurement) as 'VL' and you will get conversion factor i.e Denominator(NENNR)/Numerator(DZAEHL).

For material conversions, you have to use MARM not T006. A case of material 1 can be 20 but a case some other material can be 30. You cannot simply say 1 case is always equal to 20 or 30, because it depends on the material you are talking about. That is why you cannot use T006 for this purpose or the UNIT_CONVERSION_SIMPLE function module.

T006 or UNIT_CONVERSION_SIMPLE are useful only when you are talking about standard conversion like kilos to punds or centimeters to meters etc.

if helpful reward points are appreciated

Hi Tush Mangad

The FM UNIT_CONVERSION_SIMPLE even works fine and i can enable RFC by copying the standard one ... and create a BAPI , but the problem is that i need the standard BAPI not the custamised one......

Thanks for replying ...
