Hi Team,

I am writing this blog to better understand the concept of Purchase Order UOM change using Info Record in simple way by any SAP User.

Introduction:

In today’s business environment, managing procurement processes accurately is critical to an organization’s success. SAP, a leading ERP system, provides effective procurement management solutions, including Purchase Orders (PO’s). Changing the Unit of Measure (UOM) in their SAP Purchase Orders is a common challenge for businesses.

Info Record is a useful tool that simplifies and streamlines the process of handling UOM changes in SAP Purchase Orders.
