Regarding Tcode CUNI

[#1]

Hello,

I am unable to Edit the Conversion Factor in  Tcode CUNI ,

I searched the forum but could not find a solution to my problem.

For your reference screenshot is given below.

Please suggest me if there's any other way to define Conversion between two Units of Measurement.

Thanks in advance

You dont need to select the unit and click this conversion icon. Just click the detail button for the unit and maintain it there.

Hello,

Thanks for your quick reply, but my clients requirement is as below.

BTU  0.0000010 MMBTU

MMBTU 1000000 BTU

I have defined  BTU & MMBTU in the system but I am stuck at the conversion factor

Please ignore the above screenshot which is in Joule, I require the conversion in BTU n MMBTU

Thanks & Regards,

Krishna

Joule is the SI unit.

so you define a conversion from MMBTU to Joule  and a conversion from BTU to Joule.

If you then create a material master with a base unit BTU and you add MMBTU as alternative unit, then SAP is able to take the right conversion between BTU and MMBTU itself based on the conversion rates to Joule from your customizing

Hello Jurgen

I am confused as if what to defined in Numerator and Denominator,

as I am using CUNI for first time.

Please guide me for the same.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi Krishna,

Here is the formula for the conversion:

Measurement unit = (N/D) x SI unit

The conversion will be carried out by multiplying the numerator (N) and dividing by denominator value (D).

Analyse SAP given units that are well known to you, e.g. KG and LB

You know probably that a pound is just 0.454 kg, just open the LB unit in detail in CUNI and see how the conversion (the numerator and denominator) are filled and you can easily reproduce the same for your new unit

Hi,

For accessing to t.code: CUNI, consult basis consultant but why you are editing already created Unit of measure setting!

For energy, you already have Unit of measure as J for Joule(1kg. m2/ s2) which is SI UNIT in system , so no need to create a new one.Also you have other units such as KJ( Kilojoule), KWH(Kilowatt hours),MWH(Megawatt hour) and MJ(Millijoule).

For creating new Unit of measure, based on natural calculation of your unit– you can decide Numerator and Denominator.

This is only display and you cannot change it here.

you have to define the relation for the required UOM with the SI unit of measure for the same metric using the numerator and denominator

for E.g  i kilo joule will have 1000 in numerator and 1 in denominator since joule is the SI unit of energy.

you may do the setting in CUNI > unit of measurements for the deisred metric ( energy , area etc )
