• Key Concepts: 
  The planning unit of measure (PUoM) is a component of the SAP product master that defines the unit of measure used for planning and scheduling purposes. It is used to define the quantity of a product that is planned and scheduled in a given period. The PUoM can be set to any unit of measure, such as kilograms, liters, or pieces. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The PUoM is used to define the quantity of a product that is planned and scheduled in a given period. It is important to ensure that the PUoM is set correctly for each product, as this will affect the accuracy of the planning and scheduling process. To set the PUoM, go to the SAP product master and select the “Planning Unit of Measure” field. Select the appropriate unit of measure from the drop-down list. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to ensure that the PUoM is set correctly for each product, as this will affect the accuracy of the planning and scheduling process. It is also important to ensure that all products have a consistent PUoM, as this will make it easier to compare different products when planning and scheduling. 
  
  Related Information: 
  The PUoM is closely related to other components of the SAP product master, such as the base unit of measure (BUoM) and the order unit of measure (OUoM). The BUoM defines the smallest unit in which a product can be ordered, while the OUoM defines how many units are ordered in each order. Both of these components are important for accurate planning and scheduling.
