Edit units of measure

In Beas, numbers are always formatted according to the Windows settings (Control Panel > Regional Settings), since all beas fields are input fields conforming to Windows.

kg = 2 decimal places

Inventory = 1.523 kg, in beas area an inventory of 1.52 kg is displayed

Inventory = 1.553 kg, in beas area an inventory of 1.56 kg is displayed

This defines the Rounding Method for

•MRP run for the primary forecast requirement

•external purchase order (field quantity), (beas 9.3 PL 1)

Note:

The available rounding types are:

•Rounding at .5

•Round up: always round up

•Round off: always round down

•No rounding

Forecast Scheduling Example:

Scheduling: 50 pieces are scheduled for the current month and today is the 20th day of the month.

Results in a requirement of 50 : 30 days/month * 20 = 33.3333

When planning decimal places, the number of decimal places is specified and the type of rounding is specified during rounding.

Rounding Examples:

Requirement 33.33 with 1 decimal place

Commercial: 33,3

round up:       33,4

round down:        33,3

Requirement    33.45 with 0 decimal places

Commercial  34.0

Round up       34.0

Round down   33.0

BOM items can be stored in any unit of measure. A rounding definition can be stored in BOMs. Here you can specify the rounding default to be used for this unit of quantity when creating a new BOM position.

Rounding affects the total result – computed per warehouse unit, not per piece or consumption unit.

Example

Requirement 0,03 per piece
Rounding: multiple = 1

Production: 30 pieces = 0,03 = 30 = 0,9
Requirement = multiple of 1 = 1 Pcs

Available rounding methods:

commercial

round up

round down

multiple of

no rounding

Requirement 33.33  1 decimal

commercial : 33.3

round up:       33.4

round down:   33.3

Requirement    33.45 0 decimal

commercial     34.0

round up         34.0

round down     33.0
