In the lower part of the screen you can see a two-way conversion calculation based on the conversion formula.

length, width, height, od, id,

Dimension defined by the item. The value is retrieved from the item master data in SAP. The value shown on the screen is only an example to allow testing.

Density

Dimension defined by the item to be used as a conversion factor. This option is used when the conversion is not fixed as, for example, kilogram to gram. In this case, we use variables. As Purchase and Sales units have a conversion factor in SAP, in Beas we can use the density variable to define a factor to convert from inventory unit to the bill of material unit.

Density can be defined using the raw material field or the specific weight field from the item master data. Only one option is available and it depends on a parameter from the Configuration wizard > Item > Spec. Weight by Item.

Number unit 1

Conversion from unit 1 to unit 2

Number unit 2

Conversion from unit 1 to unit 2
