SAP Functional Batch Specific Unit of Measure BS - UOM

Batch Specific Unit of Measure (BS-UOM) can be used when the exact quantity of components cannot be defined or when goods are received and issued in multiple units of measure. For example, iron rods may be measured in kilograms but have a varying kilogram amount per meter of length. BS-UOM also helps when ingredients have set percentage mixtures. The document outlines steps for using BS-UOM to track fabrics issued to a subcontractor for printing, which are returned in varying lengths due to elongation during printing, while maintaining consistent raw material usage.

SAP Functional – Batch Specific Unit of Measure (BS – UOM)

Batch Specific Unit of Measure can be used in the scenario where the exact quantity of
components cannot be defined. Also it can be used in the scenario where the Goods Issue
and Goods Receipts are handled in both Units. (Base Unit of Measure and Batch Specific
Unit of Measure). For example in the following scenarios it can be used:

 Iron Rods / Plastic Pipes to be maintained in Length as well as KG (KG per Meter
may get vary)
 Ingredients management where there is a particular percentage of Raw material to
be used in the manufacturing

I came across this scenario usage for finding a solution for the following issue. The
Customers sends a Bundle (100 M) of Fabrics to the Sub Contractor where the Sub-
Contractor prints the Fabrics and sends back to the Customer. The Sub- Contractor is
charging the Printing cost based on the No Of Meters printed. The Issue here is the
elongation where by the Bundle after printing it could be of 110 Meter.

In the Standard Sub-Contracting Process if we maintain the BOM we need to maintain


the 1Bunle of Printed Fabrics with 100 Meter of fabrics. Here we can not specify the
tolerance. Therefore I found the BS-UOM useful and though of sharing with you all. I
have given below the steps for the above process.

Step 1: Define UOM Bundle in CUNI


Step 2: Define UOM for Batch Specific UOM in CUNI

Step 3: Define Calculation of Base Quantity from Proportion Quantity


Step 4: Create Characteristics
Step 5: Create Class and assign Characteristics

Step 6: Assign Class to the Material Master

Step7: Alternate UOM in Material Master


Step 8 BOM

Step 9: Create Schedule Agreement and Maintain Schedules


Step 10: Issue Fabrics to the Subcontractor

Step 11: MIGO (1 Bundle of Printed Fabrics = 108 Meter)


Step 12: MIGO (1 Bundle of Printed Fabrics = 110 Meter)

Step 13: Stock Overview


In the above two goods receipt you can notice that the raw material (Fabrics) consumed
Qty remains same (50 Kg) even when the Printed Fabrics Qty varies.
