I’ve corrected the gross and net weight values in PRD as well as the dimensions.
I’ve added the tasks I completed to make the corrections in Column U of the attached spreadsheet.
For the future if this happens here are the steps you should take
• If the material that needs weights/dimensions adjusted does not exist in a US Sales Org (KO or KLTD) Thailand PDM should make the necessary changes.
o change the EA Unit of measure values to the KG, M3 and MM (M) values.
o Remove the EAM value from the sales unit field in all Asia Sales Orgs
o Delete the EAM line in the additional unit of measure tab.
• If the material that needs weights/dimensions adjusted does exist in the US Sales Orgs (KO or KLTD)
o Send a Call Request to the US EDS team to adjust the values
Please note that we have a process difference in regards to the entry of weights between the US and Asia. For US materials we enter the total packed weights of our FG materials in both the gross and net weight fields in SAP. If you add an EAM line, your net weight will only allow the KG value to auto-calculate off the US LB net weight. You cannot manually enter this. I wanted to let you know this just in case you see this in SAP.
Once all the merger issues have been addressed, I will work with the US teams to verify if we can change our process to match the Asia, UK and EMEA processes when it comes to the entry of gross and net weights.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
