Unit of Measure 'PCE' can be found in the standard SAP ECC configuration as a ISO code for mapping internal SAP units, such as 'PC', 'ST'.
It claims to be ISO code, but however I try I cannot find this code in the published UN/ECE Recommendations, accessible at http://www.unece.org/cefact/codesfortrade/codes_index.html referenced in the OSS Note 69063.
How come the UOM 'PCE' is configured as ISO code in SAP ECC, when it is not included in the published ISO code set?
What kind code is it and why it causes confusion in implementing integration scenarios with applications that are ISO compliant?
| Common Code | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| H87 | piece | A unit of count defining the number of pieces (piece: a single item, article or exemplar). |
| EA | each | A unit of count defining the number of items regarded as separate units. |
Btw, how has the PCE sneaked in to the ISO codes in SAP ECC?
Are customers recommended to update their ISO code mapping of UOM in ECC to the current standard?
