Summary :
This SAP Note advises on IS-OIL configuration, specifically focusing on setting the unit of measure (UoM) groups for materials. Critical to IS-OIL setups, choosing the right base UoM—preferably a static mass or volume unit—and carefully designing UoM groups are emphasized to prevent stock inconsistencies after goods movements and material document reversals. The note elaborates that stock levels must be accurate and consistent, which dictates that unit groups, once assigned to a material, shouldn't be changed if stock histories and conversions are to remain coherent. Recommendations include minimizing variants within the UoM group and ensuring all entries are either critical for business or not directly derivable from existing units.
