Strange behavior with a PO and Conv Factor
11/29/07 at 11:00:34
 
We have some material that we purchase in Liters.
 
We want to stock this item in Gallons.
 
I have set the Stocking and Pricing units to GA and have set the Purchase Units to L.
We have entered .26417 as the converstion factor.  When we receive 1 unit (liters) we want
.26417 Units (gallons) to be put in stock.
 
I have entered a price through PO-H.  I left the Purch U/M set to L and the Conversion factor
set to .2642 (please note that PO-H is 1 decimal shorter than inventory).\
I entered the price in purchase units ($9.1724 per liter).
 
I entered a PO for qty 25 of this item.  The extended price shows up as $9.17 instead of 25 * 9.1724 = $229.31.
 
In PO-H, it specifically said that the prices entered should be in purchased units.
 
This is the first time that we have had an item with a conversion factor less than 1.
Other items with conversion factors greater than 1 work fine.
 
Any Ideas??

Looks like it is the UM and not the conversion factor.  Use LTR for Liter instead of L.  It appears to be using the "L" as "Lot Charge".

That fixed it.
 
 FYI - According to Wikipedia, Capital 'L' or lower case 'L' are the official Symbols for Liter.
