1. In the purchase order on which the goods receipt is based, you defined a purchase order price unit that differs from the purchase order unit. What is the significance of the purchase order price unit and what should you take note of in the case of a goods receipt? The purchase order price unit is stored in the material master record or purchasing info record and defines the unit of measure in which the material is ordered. The system establishes the relationship between the purchase order price unit and the purchase order unit by unit conversion in the purchase order. At the time of goods receipt, both the quantity in the purchase order unit and the quantity in the purchase order price unit have to be entered, however, the quantity in purchase order price unit is calculated by the system. You have to change it, when the calculated quantity differs from reality. Both at the time of goods receipt and invoice verification, the material is valuated on the basis of the purchase order unit. 2. You enter a goods issue and receive the following message: "W: On <current date>, only 0.000 pieces are available". What do you conclude from this? No stocks of the material exist anywhere in the entire plant. Therefore, nothing can be withdrawn Only the specified storage location does not contain any stocks of the material. Therefore, nothing can be withdrawn. The material exists in the specified storage location on the current day, however, it is unavailable, because of other reservations The message represents a warning which you can ignore by pressing the ENTER key
