Structure
You can store the following oil-specific data in the material master record:
Base unit of measure
Unit of measure group
The unit of measure group is a group of units of measure that is assigned to a material at plant level and that enables inventory management in multiple units
of measure for the material.
You can define unit of measure groups and their entries (units of measure) in Customizing under Industry Solution Oil & Gas (Downstream) HPM
(Hydrocarbon Product Management) Oil & Gas-Specific Units of Measure and Additional Stockkeeping Define additional stockkeeping units of
measure .
If stock has already posted for the material, it is not possible to change the unit of measure group in the material master.
Conversion group
The conversion group contains:
A connection to external routines that are required for Oil and Gas quantity conversion
The product type:
Crude oil
Finished products
Chemicals (generic oil products)
Lubricants
Liquid gases (liquefied petroleum gas/natural gas liquid = LPG/NGL)
Asphalt/bitumen
Natural gas
Liquefied natural gas = LNG
Raw material
Water
Industrial aromatic hydrocarbons
The standard conditions for the base density and base calorific value
The control indicators for quantity conversion
The tolerances for differences between manual entries and values calculated by the system

The conversion group is defined at plant level. In that way, the material is classified for all plants as an HPM material, which means the conversion group has
to be maintained for all plants for the material.
You can create conversion groups in Customizing under Industry Solution Oil & Gas (Downstream) HPM (Hydrocarbon Product Management)
Petroleum Measurement Standards Quantity Conversion Interface (QCI) Configuration Define conversion group and external function module settings .
If stock has already been posted for the material, it is not possible to change the conversion group in the material master record.
Air buoyancy factor
The air buoyancy factor:
Is required in some situations for oil quantity conversion between volume and mass
Is used during oil quantity conversion to correct the calculated base density to account for the difference between the density in a vacuum and at normal
air pressure. It is subtracted from the base density before the base density is multiplied by the volume to calculate the apparent mass (weight).
Fixed density
For a material defined as a chemical product (the product type) in the conversion group, a density must be maintained in the material master. That fixed
density is used during the oil quantity conversion for calculations between mass units and volume units. The density in this case is a density at 15 C/20 C or
60F.
Thermal expansion coefficient
The thermal expansion coefficient describes the way a material expands during changes in temperature. A fixed density is assigned to oil products that are
entered as chemicals (the product type) in the system. The fixed density and the thermal expansion coefficient are used during oil quantity conversion to
convert volumes into values at standard temperature. The thermal expansion coefficient is directly connected to a standard temperature (15 C, 20 C, 60 F).
Which one it is depends on the conversion group.
Excise duty group
The excise duty group is required for determining the excise duty rate. If the material is relevant for tax purposes, an excise duty tax group has to be assigned
to it. From a tax point of view, all materials of an excise duty group are handled the same.
You can create excise duty groups in Customizing under Industry Solution Oil & Gas (Downstream) TDP (Tariffs, Duties and Permits) Global
Settings Parameter Definitions Set excise duty group .
If stock has already been posted for the material, it is not possible to change the excise duty tax group in the material master record.
Oil content of the material
This value indicates:
The oil content of the material in percent
The percentage of the material moved that is subject to excise tax
Customs tariff number
You can enter a material-dependent customs tariff number and store it in the system for informational purposes.
Plant-to-plant stock transfer indicator
The transfer indicator specifies the plant-to-plant transfer. There are three different types of plant-to-plant transfer:
Plant-to-plant transfer according to the SAP standard
Plant-to-plant transfer with an added function for updating transfer data records for statistical purposes
IS-Oil plant-to-plant transfer with a gain/loss calculation and posting

Prerequisites
Definition of Units of Measure and Dimensions
The following units of measure are used for the oil quantity conversion:
Mass units of measure
Volume units of measure
Density units of measure
You can define the volume units of measurement for a specific temperature.

For liquid quantity calculation, pressure parameters can be sent to the Quantity Conversion Interface. Those parameters can be used in customer-specific
functions.
Material Master
You define a base unit of measure (stockkeeping unit) for the material in the material master record. That is the unit of measure for the stock quantity (base
quantity) in the system. Because that base quantity also determines the valuation of the material, it is very important to choose a standardized unit of
measure as the base unit of measure.
In addition, you can also save a relation between two units of measure in the system as conversion factors. The conversion factors are used for all planning
calculations for a material, as long as the real quantities from goods movements are not known. The unit of measure relation for each material is a subdefinition of the unit of measurement definition. The unit of measurement definition is valid globally for all the materials.
You can also save oil-specific data in the material master record (see also
Oil-Specific Data in the Material Master)
Assigning a Conversion Group
The Quantity Conversion Interface is activated for a material when a conversion group is assigned to a material in the material master. The conversion group
also defines which specific external functions are used to calculate the material quantities and base parameters (base density, base calorific value).

Enjoy transaction O3DEFAULTS used for creating the default values for oil and gas quantity conversion replaces the old transaction,
O3C1. However, you can still use transaction O3C1 without any functional limitations. The documentation that follows describes the new
transaction, O3DEFAULTS.
Transaction O3DEFAULTS allows a flexible number of default values to be entered. You can define the default values at plant, storage location or batch level
per material, day, and time. The system always reads the default values from bottom to top, that means that the system first uses specific values at batch or
storage location level before using general values at plant level. If the entry of a time is possible in transactions with oil and gas quantity conversion, the
system selects the default value that is closest to that day and time.
Prerequisites
In order to be able to enter default values for oil and gas quantity conversion using transaction O3DEFAULTS, you have to make the following settings in
Customizing for the Industry Solution Oil & Gas (Downstream) :
HPM Petroleum Measurement Standards Quantity Conversion Interface (QCI) Configuration Select QCI default table .
HPM Petroleum Measurement Standards Quantity Conversion Interface (QCI) Configuration Define reading group .
HPM Petroleum Measurement Standards Quantity Conversion Interface (QCI) Configuration Define conversion group and external function
module settings . You can now assign an HPM parameter group (reading group) to the conversion group.
HPM
HPM-Specific Settings for Goods Movements Maintain settings for goods movements (transaction MIGO). Here, you can determine
whether the system uses the document date or the posting date to determine the default values for the oil quantity conversion for goods movements
(transaction MIGO).
Features
The HPM parameter group (reading group) allows a more flexible entry of default values. You define the reading group in Customizing. The reading group
contains a sub-quantity of all possible parameters that are relevant for quantity conversion. You can create default values for those parameters.
You can assign exactly one reading group to each conversion group. When default values are created with transaction O3DEFAULTS and when a material is
entered, the system determines a conversion group from the material master record, and the assigned reading group from Customizing. The default values of
the reading group are defaulted, and can be changed, or they have to be accepted depending on the specific Customizing settings.
A reading group can be set in such a way, for example, that default values can be entered for 7 parameters in Customizing because they are

!--a11y-->
Prerequisites
You can only use the old transaction, O3C1, to enter default values if you have activated default value table OIB03 in Customizing under Industry Solution Oil
& Gas (Downstream) . You can set that in Customizing in HPM Petroleum Measurement Standards Quantity Conversion Interface (QCI) Conversion

Features
The following conversion modes exist in the system:
The automatic conversion mode initiates oil and gas conversion in the background mode. That means that the
Oil and Gas Quantity Conversion Dialog Box is not visible, and that the system automatically uses default values for quantity conversion parameters. That
reduces the time required for processing the transaction.
In semi-automatic conversion mode, the oil and gas conversion is carried out in the background mode using default values (as in automatic conversion
mode). However, the results are displayed in the dialog box, and you can manually change them.
The manual conversion mode is displayed as a dialog box, but prior to it being displayed, it does not carry out any calculations. You can enter the
quantity conversion parameters and the quantity.
The semi-manual conversion mode accesses the dialog box before any calculations have taken place. You can enter quantity conversion parameters,
but you cannot enter quantities.
In Enjoy transactions with oil and gas conversion, all modes are handled in the same way, except the semi-manual conversion mode. In the semi-manual
conversion mode, quantities displayed using the
Oil and Gas Quantity Conversion Subscreen cannot be changed.

Enjoy transaction O3DEFAULTS used for creating the default values for oil and gas quantity conversion replaces the old transaction,
O3C1. However, you can still use transaction O3C1 without any functional limitations. The documentation that follows describes the new
transaction, O3DEFAULTS.
Transaction O3DEFAULTS allows a flexible number of default values to be entered. You can define the default values at plant, storage location or batch level
per material, day, and time. The system always reads the default values from bottom to top, that means that the system first uses specific values at batch or
storage location level before using general values at plant level. If the entry of a time is possible in transactions with oil and gas quantity conversion, the
system selects the default value that is closest to that day and time.
Prerequisites
In order to be able to enter default values for oil and gas quantity conversion using transaction O3DEFAULTS, you have to make the following settings in
Customizing for the Industry Solution Oil & Gas (Downstream) :
HPM Petroleum Measurement Standards Quantity Conversion Interface (QCI) Configuration Select QCI default table .
HPM Petroleum Measurement Standards Quantity Conversion Interface (QCI) Configuration Define reading group .
HPM Petroleum Measurement Standards Quantity Conversion Interface (QCI) Configuration Define conversion group and external function

HPM
HPM-Specific Settings for Goods Movements Maintain settings for goods movements (transaction MIGO). Here, you can determine
whether the system uses the document date or the posting date to determine the default values for the oil quantity conversion for goods movements
(transaction MIGO).
Features
The HPM parameter group (reading group) allows a more flexible entry of default values. You define the reading group in Customizing. The reading group
contains a sub-quantity of all possible parameters that are relevant for quantity conversion. You can create default values for those parameters.
You can assign exactly one reading group to each conversion group. When default values are created with transaction O3DEFAULTS and when a material is
entered, the system determines a conversion group from the material master record, and the assigned reading group from Customizing. The default values of
the reading group are defaulted, and can be changed, or they have to be accepted depending on the specific Customizing settings.

Activities
Activating the Oil and Gas Quantity Conversion
You activate the conversion whenever you use an HIM material and enter the document quantity.
Additional Document Quantities
The system calculates the base quantity in the material document using the oil and gas quantity conversion, and saves it there. In addition to the base
quantity, the quantities in the units of measure are calculated that are defined in the unit of measure group (see also
Oil-Specific Data in the Material Master). The system expands the list of units of measure to be calculated.
In addition to the units of measure defined in the unit of measure group, units of measure are copied from the purchase contract and from the purchase order.
The system searches the purchase contract or the purchase order for units of measure that are neither in the unit of measure group nor are defined as base
units of measure or as stockkeeping units of measure. If an additional unit of measure is found, the corresponding quantity is calculated in that unit of
measure in the oil and gas quantity conversion.
Additional Stock Quantities
Stocks are managed in the base unit of measure (stockkeeping unit). For an HIM material, the stock quantities are also maintained in the units of measure of
the unit of measure group. In the stock overview, you can display the additional stock quantities, which are available at plant, storage location, batch and
special stock levels.
Conversion Mode
Depending on how the
Conversion Mode, is set, in "old" transactions, the system carries out the calculation of the additional quantities either in dialog mode or as a background job.
You can use the conversion mode to control whether or not the quantities can be manually overwritten.
In Enjoy transactions, all modes other than the semi-manual mode are treated the same. In the semi-manual conversion mode, you cannot change the
quantities that are displayed using the oil and gas conversion subscreen.
Oil and Gas Quantity Conversion
The
Oil Quantity Conversion or the Gas Quantity Conversion is used for calculating the additonal quantities. Those functions calculate quantities based on the
definitions in Customizing under Industry Solution Oil & Gas (Downstream) HPM Petroleum Measurement Standards Quantity Conversion
Interface (QCI) Configuration , and based on the settings of the units of measure in the material master.
For liquid HIM materials, additionally, a density and volume correction is carried out based on density and temperature values. For gaseous HIM materials

Activities
Activating the Oil and Gas Quantity Conversion
You activate the conversion by using an HIM material and entering the physical inventory quantity.
Additional Stock Quantities
Stocks are managed in the base unit of measure (stockkeeping unit). For an HIM material, the system additionally maintains the stock quantities in the units
of measure of the unit of measure group. The additional stock quantities are available at plant, storage location, batch, and special stock levels.
During physical inventory, you compare the posted book quantity with the counted quantity that was entered. The system converts the count quantity into the
base unit of measure and compares it with the book amount in base unit of measure. The difference quantity between the book quantity and the count quantity
is saved in a goods movement document.
When an HIM material is used, the conversion of the count quantity into base unit of measure is carried out using the oil and gas quantity conversion. The
book quantity is listed in the base unit of measure and also converted into the units of measure of the unit of measure group, and saved. The count quantities
are compared with the stock quantities stored at plant, storage location, batch and special stock levels and are saved in the material document of the goods
movement as an appendix.

Activities
Activating the Oil and Gas Quantity Conversion
You activate the conversion when you use an HIM material, and when you enter the delivery quantity and the storage location.
For deliveries in which picking has to be carried out, the entry of the pick quantity triggers the oil and gas quantity conversion, if the oil and gas quantity
conversion has not yet been carried out. The delivery quantity has to correspond to the pick quantity.
Once the oil and gas quantity conversion has been carried out, every change of the delivery quantity or the storage location will lead to the quantities being
recalculated.
Additional Delivery Quantities
The system calculates the base quantity in the delivery using the oil quantity conversion, and stores it there. In addition to the base quantity, the quantities are
calculated in the units of measure of the unit of measure group. The system expands the list of units of measure to be calculated.
In addition to the units of measure that are defined in the unit of measure group, units of measure are copied from the contract or order. The system searches
the contract or order for units of measure that are not in the unit of measure group nor are defined as base unit of measure (stockkeeping unit), volumes or
weight units. If an additional unit of measure is found, the corresponding quantity is calculated in that unit of measure in the oil and gas quantity conversion.
Conversion Mode
Depending on how the
Conversion Mode is set, in "old" transactions, the system carries out the calculation of the additional quantities either in dialog mode or as a background job.
You can use the conversion mode to control whether or not the quantities can be manually overwritten.
In Enjoy transactions, all modes other than the semi-manual conversion mode are treated the same. In the semi-manual conversion mode, you cannot change
the quantities that are displayed in the oil and gas quantity conversion subscreen.

Use
A high percentage of the products sold in the oil industry are blended products. A refinery sells, for example, unleaded "super" gasoline to various oil
companies. The refinery stores the unleaded super gasoline and blends (depending on the customers preferences) a special additive into the product.
Blending takes place during loading. Stocks are maintained in the system for the unleaded super gasoline and the additive, but not for the product that is
actually delivered.
You can use an IS-Oil bill of material to maintain the blended products in the R/3 System.

Prerequisites
The item category determines the characteristics and functions of a bill of material in the sales cycle. When creating a bill of material item in an SD document,
you have to choose an item category for each item. The item category determines, for example, whether the item is relevant for:
Pricing
Delivery
Billing
In order to be able to activate quantity summation for IS-Oil bills of material at header level, the corresponding item categories have to be set. You can carry
out all the required settings in SD-Customizing by choosing Sales
Sales Documents Sales Document Item Define Item Categories. You can find additional information on item categories in the Implementation Guide.
Process flow
Order
The system does not carry out an oil and gas quantity conversion in the order, because no goods movement has taken place.
The order contains the BOM header material. The system uses it to determine the price.
The bill of material is broken down in the order into its components. In contrast to the components, the BOM header material is not relevant for goods
movements.
Delivery
The oil and gas quantity conversion is carried out in the delivery at component level. The system uses the oil and gas quantity conversion to calculate the
base quantity per component. In addition to the base quantity, the quantities are calculated in the units of measure of the unit of measure group. The list of
units of measure to be used for calculation is extended.
In addition to the units of measure that are defined in the unit of measure group, units of measure are copied from the contract or order. The system searches
the contract or order for units of measure that are not in the unit of measure group nor are defined as base unit of measure (stockkeeping unit), volumes, or
weight units. If an additional unit of measure is found, the corresponding quantity is calculated in that unit of measure in the oil and gas quantity conversion.
After the system has carried out oil and gas quantity conversion at component level, it sums up all the quantities of the BOM components in the relevant units
of measure, and saves that sum at header level. If the unit of measure groups of the header material and the BOM components differ, the system extends the
list of units of measure to be used for calculation to the header level.

Goods Issue
The system copies the additional quantities that were saved with the delivery into the material document for the goods issue. Thus, the goods issue takes
place at component level.
Billing
The system does not carry out any quantity conversions during billing, but rather uses the additional quantities of the BOM header material which are saved in
the delivery. Pricing in the billing document is thus based on the total of the quantities of the BOM components.

Additional Loaded Quantities
The system calculates the base quantity in the loading confirmation using the oil and gas quantity conversion, and stores it there. In addition to the base
quantity, the quantities are calculated in the units of measure of the unit of measure group.
The system updates the quantities at material/compartment level.
Conversion Mode
Dependent on how the
Conversion Mode is set, the system carries out the calculation of the additional quantities either in the normal dialog mode, or as a background job. You can
use the conversion mode to control whether or not the quantities can be manually overwritten.
During the shipment and distribution of bulk products, it often occurs that the material is loaded from one storage area into several compartments. Because
normally for that series of loading processes, the same default values are valid for the oil and gas quantity conversion, they only have to be entered when
product is loaded into the first compartment. The system automatically uses the date for the subsequent loading processes. In that way, the time required for
entering data is reduced.

The oil and gas quantity conversion for the delivery confirmation is carried out as a background job.
During the delivery confirmation, the system uses the values that were already in the loading confirmation as defaults for the oil and gas quantity conversion.
In that way, the time required for entering data is reduced.
If the values for the oil and gas quantity conversion are identical in the delivery confirmation and the loading confirmation, the delivered quantities are
determined as a proportion of the loaded quantities. The system thus does not recalculate the values. In that way, the same result is achieved, but the
processing time is reduced.
Saving Additional Quantities
The quantities calculated in addition to the delivery confirmation are automatically saved with the delivery confirmation. You can then access or change the

This process takes into account the fact that the BS & W value is a percentage of the volume of a material that is moved, and is thus taken into account in
the target quantities that are in volume units of measure.
The meter correction factor is a correction factor that calibrates volume flow meters to represent standard conditions. For that reason, the factor is only used
for transaction quantities that are entered as volume measurements. For entries of masses as transaction quantities, it is assumed that the value entered has
been exactly determined by weighing the product.

Features
Two-Step Plant-to-Plant Transfer in the R/3 Standard System
When you carry out a two-step stock transfer from plant to plant, you first post the removal from storage from the issuing plant. After the stock removal
posting, the quantity of product to be transferred is put in the stock in transit (with a stock transport order), or, in the stock in transfer of the receiving plant
(without a stock transport order); but it is cannot yet be used.
In a second step, you post the placement in storage at the receiving plant. Only then is the transaction complete, and the quantity transferred can now be
used.
In the Standard System, you can carry out a two-step stock transfer from plant to plant:
Using a stock transport order for goods issue postings in shipping (replenishment delivery)
Using a stock transport order for goods issue postings in inventory management
Without a stock transport order
Tracking Stock Transfers in the R/3 Oil & Gas System (Downstream)
For stock transfers in the Standard System, it is only possible to assign individual goods issues and goods receipts to physical goods movements by using
the stock transport order. As a result, the system does not calculate gains and losses.
In the oil and gas industry, changes in quantity can, however, occur when bulk materials are moved (for example crude oil, fuels, etc.). That can occur, for
example, when the material temperature at the receiving plant is different than the material temperature at the issuing plant, and the material is thus subject to
density changes during the shipment.
To be able to monitor goods movements and to be able to determine any changes in value of the material that may arise (gains and losses), when activation
occurs, the system tracks the goods movements of the material (see also
Activating Goods Movement Recordings). The system automatically assigns a tracking number to the goods issue and goods receipt documents. You can use
the tracking number to track the goods movements. The system automatically carries out the gains and loss postings.

Use
The gains and losses for goods issues and goods receipts that are linked to a tracking number are defined as follows:
Stock increase/stock loss = goods issue quantity - goods receipt quantity of all goods receipts
If the result is negative, meaning that the goods issue quantity is smaller than the goods receipt quantity for all goods receipts, the system creates a gain
posting.
If the result is positive, meaning that the goods issue quantity is larger than the goods receipt quantity for all goods receipts, the system creates a loss
posting.
As soon as a gain or loss occurs, the valuation record for the material is updated to reflect the increase in quantity or the loss in quantity at the receiving plant.
Prerequisites
You define the basis for calculation for the gain and loss determination in a Customizing table. The following options exist as a basis for calculation for the
gains and losses:
The material price at the receiving plant
The material price at the issuing plant at the time at which the gain and loss occurs
The material price at the issuing plant at the time of the goods issue
The condition record for the material

Features
For plant-to-plant transfers of taxed materials, the system automatically posts excise duties according to specific posting rules. The following situations can
occur:
Excise duty liabilities
Excise duty liabilities arise when:
Taxed material is moved from an ED-free location to an ED-paid location.
Taxed material is transferred to a location with a higher excise duty.
The liabilities are posted during the goods issue.
Reduction/exemption of excise duty
A reduction of, or relief from excise duty occurs when the excise duty for taxed material is reduced or exempted.
If the receiving plant is an ED-free location, the reduction of or relief from excise duty is posted at the receiving plant.
If the receiving plant is an ED-paid area, the reduction or exemption of taxes is posted at the issuing plant.
Excise duty reimbursements
Excise duty reimbursements occur when:
Dutiable material is placed in storage at an ED-free location
ED-paid material is transferred to a (storage) location with lower excise duty.
The liabilities are posted during the goods issue.
Changes to the excise duty rate (only for two-step plant-to-plant transfers with stock transfer tracking)
The excise duty rate for a material can change between the time of the goods issue at the issuing plant and the goods receipt at the receiving plant.
The changes to the excise duty rate are posted only for the last goods receipt at the receiving plant, as soon as the system has determined the gains or
losses for the entire stock transfer.
Excise duty gain/loss (only for two-step plant-to-plant stock transfers with stock transfer tracking)
Excise duty gains/losses arise due to an inventory increase or decrease of ED-paid material.
Excise duty gains/losses are posted during the final goods receipt for all the materials that belong to a stock transfer and thus to a single tracking number.

Purpose
Silo/Tank Management allows a company to record physical material stocks in tanks (silos) either hourly, daily, or weekly. As a part of that process, tank dips
can be recorded in the R/3 System. The physical stock readings (tank dip readings) can be compared at any time with book inventories (storage location
stocks, batch stock, or special stock), or with changes in book inventories (goods movement records). In that way, gains and losses can always be
determined and goods movements can be monitored.
Tank master data can be defined to create a basis for the recording of tank dip readings in the R/3 System.
Integration
One or more tanks can be assigned to a storage location. In addition, one or more materials or material segments with special characteristics such as batch,
valuation type and special stock can be assigned to a tank. You can find additional information under
Assigning Materials to Tanks.
Silo/Tank Management is integrated with goods movements. You can find additional information under
Integration of Silo/Tank Management with Goods Movements.
