Question:
HI,
I am just wondering, does any body knows any Function module which takes input in unit of measure (i.e,LB's - pounds) and converty them into PC's.( i.e, Piece).
Example : 100lbs = 1piece
200lbs = 2piece
300lbs = 3 piece
Appreciate any inputs on this.
Thanks,
Answer:
just divide by 100....
seriously, a pound is a unit of weight.
a piece is not a unit of weight.
what miracle FM will do that? It is called your brain.

Answer:
there is
and snowy, 5 pieces can have a weight of 100pounds...thats pretty usefull to know this ratio when you have small bags of thousands of pieces and a standard bag weight..imao counting those pieces 1 by one=)
see table MARM..that give(here) pcs/box, box/pal and there is also the weight of pieces. youll need a select more than a FM since i guess you need to retrieve the weight for each matnr and all..

Answer:
i havnt confirm but you can see some more info in mm02-->basic data-->unit of measure..hit some F1 in this screen and you should be able to work your way arround

Answer:
Try Funtion Module 'CF_UT_UNIT_CONVERSION' should resolve your issue

Use mara-ntgew, mara-bgrew, or mara-groes for conversion. Most of my materials are in cs. I have the values in pounds in ntgew and bgrew. I just do the basic math to get from cases to pounds.
You can apply that same logic?
Answer:
You might want to check FM MD_CONVERT_MATERIAL_UNIT as used by VA01/2/3 and MD_EINZELRUNDUNG if you are using rounding rules.

Answer:
a smiple function module call will not convert a unit of mass to a non-mass unit.
assume you have a pound of pencils and a pound of ball bearings. can you assume a simple function call will give you the correct number of pieces for each? no.
when you need to have this type of conversion for a material, you need to maintain, _for each material_, the valid conversion information. This can be maintained in the material master (MM02) or in the vendor info record (i believe).
Once you define that a pound of ball bearings is 35 pieces, then the function module call will function correctly.

Yes it will, if the materials master data is setted up correctly, and if it is the right FM (one that is having the material pass as parameter).
And a FM will not convert well even between different mass units if that data is *not* setted up correctly in customising.

If there is software to launch space shuttle i guess there could be a fm to convert pounds to pieces ..it just need to get the right info and processing.
