Material Quantity
Sana Commerce Cloud allows you to define and manage material quantities in SAP S/4HANA and quantity rounding for products in Sana Admin, ensuring you provide accurate order control, inventory transparency, and user-friendly ordering experience in the Sana webstore.
Set Up Quantity Stipulations
Using Quantity stipulations in SAP S/4HANA, you can set up sales quantities for the materials. The configured in SAP S/4HANA sales quantities for a material are used on the product pages and in the shopping cart of the Sana webstore.
Quantity stipulations can be set up in the material master data, on the Sales: sales org. 1 tab.
The table below provides description of the quantity stipulation fields.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Minimum order quantity | The minimum quantity of a material a customer can order. The minimum order quantity is shown by default on the product pages in the Sana webstore. |
| Delivery unit | Only exact multiples of this number can be purchased. When a customer changes material quantity in the Sana web store, it will be increased / decreased based on the value set in this field. For example, if a delivery unit is set to 2, a customer can purchase 2, 4, 6 and so on pieces of a material. |
Sales quantities set for a material in SAP S/4HANA are validated on the product pages and in the shopping cart of the Sana webstore.
Quantity stipulations for a material are configured for the base unit of measure. If multiple units of measure are set for a material the quantities and price are adjusted based on the unit of measure conversion rules set up in SAP S/4HANA. For more information, see Units of Measure.
Enable Quantity Stipulations
To use quantity stipulations from SAP S/4HANA in the Sana webstore, it should be enabled in the Webstore Config app. Open the Webstore Config app in the SAP Fiori Launchpad. Select your webstore and click Edit. For more information, see General Webstore Settings.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Support Quantity Step | Enable this option, if you want to use delivery unit set for the materials. |
| Support Minimum Qty | Enable this option, if you want to use minimum order quantity set for the materials. |
If these options are disabled, quantity stipulation values set for the materials in SAP S/4HANA will be ignored by Sana.
Inventory Precision and Rounding
Inventory is displayed consistently across product pages, the shopping cart, and checkout, including the estimated availability dates. Quantity rounding allows webstore administrators to control how material quantities are displayed and handled in your Sana webstore, ensuring consistency with the rules defined in SAP S/4HANA.
Starting from Sana Commerce Cloud 135 and higher in SAP S/4HANA, inventory is displayed consistently across product pages, the shopping cart, and checkout, including the estimated availability dates.
To ensure that only complete units can be ordered, in Sana Admin you can set up quantity rounding for products per unit of measure, for example, 0,5 kilogram and 1 piece. In Sana Admin click: Setup > Products > Units of measure.
If material quantities are set in SAP S/4HANA, they will be used in the Sana webstore. If a material in SAP S/4HANA does not have material quantities, quantity rounding from Sana Admin will be used. This ensures customers see accurate stock information at every step, reducing order errors and improving the buying experience.
