Fields to note:
- UOM, that is the alternative unit of measure of the product, for instance "Pallet".
It is important to remark that any unit of measure needs to be created and configured in Unit of Measure window. - Conversion Rate, that is the conversion between product's alternative unit of measure (AUM) to product's unit of measure.
For instance, if product's AUM conversion to product's UOM is 50; that means that 1 Pallet represents 50 Units. - Gtin, that is the "Global Trade Item Number" for the product defined in the corresponding AUM
- Sales, Purchase and Logistics, those fields allow to define the use of product's AUM within Sales, Purchase and Inventory flows.
Values allowed are:- Primary: Product's AUM defined in this tab is used as default unit of measure in the selected flow (Sales or Purchase), when creating a sales or purchas document such as an order or receipt/shipment.
Only one Primary AUM can be defined per Product and flow.
For instance, if "Pallet" is the primary AUM defined for a product within Purchase flow, that means that everytime that a purchase document is created, "Pallet" will be the default unit of measure shown. - Secondary. Product's AUM defined in this tab can be selected for the selected flow when creating a Document.
For instance, if "Pallet" is the secondary AUM defined for a product within Sales flow, while "Pack" is primary one; that means that everytime that a sales document is created, "Pack" will be the default unit of measure shown, but end-user can change it to "Pallet". - Not Applicable. The AUM defined in this tab for the product will not be available for selection when creating Documents for the selected flow.
That is the option to select for "Logistics" as the use of altenative unit of measure is currently implemented just for sales and purchase. Inventory transactions/documents always refer to product's unit of measure.
- Primary: Product's AUM defined in this tab is used as default unit of measure in the selected flow (Sales or Purchase), when creating a sales or purchas document such as an order or receipt/shipment.
