Adding a Unit-of-Measure Conversion
The unit of measure (UOM) represents the magnitude of a quantity. It defines and communicates the quantity of products in business processes such as selling, invoicing, billing, return fulfillment, shipping, and more. Each product can be associated with multiple units of measurement. This enables a company or an organization within a company to sell a specific product using different units of measure based on business requirements or customer preferences.
UOM conversion is required for ease of maintenance. The pricing administrator can set the price once and perform a UOM conversion. UOM conversion can be set for the particular product.
UOM conversion is performed when units included in the transaction differ from the primary unit of the item being transacted.
