regarding conversion of stock qty in kg to stock qty in liters

[Former Member]

Hi all,

can any one help me how to covert the stock in qty to sctock in ltrs.

i have used to following code for that but it was showing zero values. can any one help me in this issue.

IF i_final-meins NE 'KG'.

i_bestand_bal_kg = 'KG'.

CALL FUNCTION 'MD_CONVERT_MATERIAL_UNIT'

EXPORTING

i_matnr = i_mara-matnr

i_in_me = i_final-meins

i_out_me = i_bestand_bal_kg

i_menge = i_final-menge3

IMPORTING

e_menge = i_final-menge4

EXCEPTIONS

error_in_application = 1

error = 2

OTHERS = 3.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

• MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

• WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

ENDIF.

ELSE.

i_final-menge4 = i_final-menge3.

ENDIF.

i_bestand_bal_lt = 'L'.

CALL FUNCTION 'MD_CONVERT_MATERIAL_UNIT'

EXPORTING

i_matnr = i_mara-matnr

i_in_me = i_final-meins

i_out_me = i_bestand_bal_lt

i_menge = i_final-menge3

IMPORTING

e_menge = i_final-menge5

EXCEPTIONS

error_in_application = 1

error = 2

OTHERS = 3.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

• MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

• WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

ENDIF.

Thanks in advance,

Liters and kilograms do not belong to the same dimension, so are your material conversion units defined?

If the conversion between KG and L doesnt exist for each of your material, no conversion can be executed (so giving Zero)

Hi Rama,

The base unit of a material is maintained in MARA-MEINS, the alternative units for that material will be maintained in MARM-MEINH.

Please see whether alternative unit "KG " is maintained in MARM table for that material.If its maintained then only the function module will give correct values.
