I am trying to add EA as the lowest UOM in IC11.

I’ve followed these steps:

1.    IC11 UOM tab – add EA UOM with all priorities to 2 and click change

2.    PO115 – change UOM for CA to EA – run in update mode

3.    IC11 main tab – change stock UOM from CA to EA and click change

4.    IC11 UOM tab – change conversion factor and click change: error: "Cannot change UOM info; PO interface records exist".

Any help is greatly appreciated.

The item exists in PO23. I would not recommend making any changes to your uom structure when open orders exist.

This UOM change is very important because units are asking for EA and we are unable to issue by EA. This item is an inventory item. I checked PO23 - item was not found so I checked IC66, found the item and deleted the replenishment request. I tried to change the conversion but received the same error message: "Cannot change UOM info; PO interface records exist".

Can you query the POINTERFAC table and see if it exists there?
