SAP reference for units of measure

This page complements units of measure under the Community/Enterprise contract.

OpsFactor Nearby SAP field Table Note
id internal unit MSEHI or normalized external code T006 Define a stable cross-reference
description unit text T006A Language-dependent
material base unit MEINS MARA Reference for material conversions
material-specific conversion alternative-unit numerator/denominator MARM The conversion can depend on material

CUNI maintains global units; MM01, MM02, and MM03 maintain and display material alternative units. A MARM conversion must not become a global OpsFactor conversion when the factor varies across materials.

Use contract-friendly IDs such as EA, CS, or KG, and keep the crosswalk to internal and external SAP codes. Do not concatenate material into uomId; material and unit belong to the conversion key.
