Summary :
SAP Note explicitly targets systems with IS-OIL / IS-MINE, warning against applying it if these modules are absent due to potential damage risks. It describes the integration of API's new standard Chapter 11.1 into SAP via the Quantity Conversion Interface (QCI) for calculating volume correction factors (VCF) dependent on temperature and pressure. The QCI serves as a bridge to incorporate external implementations of standards such as ASTM D 1250-04 for the volume adjustment calculations in oil, gas, and chemical products. Application is viable for SAP releases 4.72 and higher, emphasizing the necessity for users to source, install, and manage external computations independently.
