RE: COM Unit of Measure question

["Ashworth, Thomas R." <TAshwort@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sounds like an Item Unit of Measure issue (COM/File Maintenance/Unit of
Measure/Item Unit of Measure Conversion) that we experienced with a customer
that wold only submit P.O.s by 'cartons' instead of 'eaches'.  An Item U/M
Conversion had to be created for each of the items this customer purchased
to make it work.

Hope this helps.
