BOP using alternate UOM

[Former Member]

Hi,

Currently APO BOP uses Base  unit of measure for back order processing. Is there a way to make APO use the alternate UOM for BOP ? and also make the report display using alternate UOM instead of Base UOM.

Hello Prabhakar,

APO always stores the information of the stocks are the requirement quantities in BUoM. If your Sales order BOM header has "CS" as the Sales UoM and if the BUoM of the Product is "IT", system has to convert this internally and run the BOP / ATP Check using IT as the UoM. I am not sure if this can be changed in standard SAP

Thanks & Best Regards,

Hi Babu

OK. My customer has almost 60% of materials delivered  to them in alternate uom  so they would like bop to happen in alternate uom. If it happens using basic uom sometimes it results in partial allocation because of conversion ratio.

Would it work if we copy the entire program in a zee transaction and then make changes to the std code for allocation and display? I think this is the only  option.

Hi Prabhakar,

IN that case, you need to implement Confirmed Quantity rounding using Shippable UOM solution. In your case Shippanow UoM is your Sales UOM that needs to be passed to RBA Constraints userexit to achieve this. This will avoid the fractional confirmations.
