Material UOMs

Each Material within the database can be represented in a different UOM. For example a Pallet (PAL) may contain Cases (CS) of Product and each Case will contain a single item or Each (EA). The system can also represent other units of measure, for example - Layers per Pallet (LAG). In order to be able to convert between these units of measure each Material has it's own associated list of Units. If you look at the image below you will see some example data.
