Re: Unit of Measure Conversion

For example, we have an inventory part that we buy it by feet but it is stocked
by inches.  The ITEMBL record will look like:

UNMSR - IN
PURUM - FT
UMCNV - 12.00000

What the system does is that multiplies the transaction qty by this conversion
factor and you have you stocking transaction qty.

Received to Stock - 10.000 Feet
Conversion factor - 12.00000
Result - 120.000 inches

Hope this helps,
