Documentation

Definition

Value that specifies the number of units of the purchase order price unit to which the price applies.

Use

Invoices are created using price units and purchase order price units which constitute the basis for value postings.
They can be stored in the purchasing info record.

Example

A material or commodity (for example, oil) can be ordered by the liter, but the vendor's invoice shows a price of 2 dollars per kilogram.

You enter 10 l as the order quantity and order unit, but specify 2 dollars per kg as purchase order price and purchase order price unit.

In addition, you enter the conversion factor "order unit -> purchase order price unit" (for example 2 l per 1 kg) in the "details" data of the purchase order item.
