Summary :
This SAP Note addresses the inventory management in IS-OIL/IS-MINE environments, specifically for Hydrocarbon Product Management (HPM) materials. HPM allows tracking inventory stock levels in multiple Units of Measure (UoM) through various transactions such as delivery and transportation processes. Additional quantities are computed based on physical data which must be manually entered via dialog boxes or subscreens in transactions like MIGO. Customization options include setting the conversion mode to semi-manual to ensure quantities align with SAP calculations, ensuring accuracy in stock management across units. Manual changes in UoM quantities, however, could lead to inaccuracies or manipulation if not properly controlled. Integration with the Quantity Conversion Interface (QCI) and specific configuration settings can mitigate such issues. SAP emphasizes customization and consulting for specific business process controls.
