    Setup Alternate Units of Measure

    <p>AcctVantage supports Unit of Measure conversion for purchasing and selling. This means you can stock a product in one Unit of Measure (UM), and sell it in any number of alternate UMs. For example, you can stock an item as INDIVIDUAL UNITS (i.e. EACH) and sell it as a CASE which could be defined as 12 units. </p> <ul><li>You can define the base unit and as many alternate UMs for your Products as you need.</li> <li>The base UM on the Product record should be the smallest unit that you deal in. This unit is used throughout the Inventory system for Physical Inventory Counts, Work Orders, Maintenance, Inventory Reporting, etc. </li> <li>Units of Measure should multiply up, not down. While the system will allow and can track partial units, it's not an ideal situation. It can cause problems with your inventory if you do things like sell 0.75 of a unit or build assemblies that contain 0.125 of a unit. Eventually, the rounding off of partial units will become problematic. Ideally your Units of Measure would be multiples of whole numbers.</li> </ul> <p><span style="color: rgb(255,0,0);text-decoration:underline"><strong>*NEW for AV 2015*</strong></span></p> <ul><li><em><strong>Universal</strong></em><strong> Units of Measure are no longer supported. </strong><ul><li>In AV2013, if you defined a CASE as containing 12 units, then CASES were defined as 12 units for all Products.</li> <li>In AV2015, every Product will have its own multiplier for any given Unit of Measure. For example, <em>a CASE of widgets might contain 12 units</em> whereas <em>a CASE of thingamajigs might contain 10 units.</em></li> <li>When you convert from AV2013 to AV2015, all of your current alternate Units of Measure will be converted to the new format.</li> </ul> </li> <li><strong>There is now a separate Unit of Measure tab on the Product record where all of the alternate UMs will be defined.</strong></li> </ul> <p>___________________________________________________________________________________________</p> <p>Please see these related lessons for more on how to <em>Purchase</em> or <em>Sell</em> Products using Alternate UM's:</p> <p><a href="58408?data-resolve-url=true&amp;data-manual-id=" data-object-class="article" data-object-uuid="D4F7C905-F456-4EF7-B54F-437115ACE607" data-object-manual-uuid="" data-resolve-url="true" target="_blank">Purchase Orders &amp; Alternate Units of Measure</a></p> <p><a href="86116?data-resolve-url=true&amp;data-manual-id=" data-object-class="article" data-object-uuid="E17A7297-121D-4397-88C2-6D490FF24DF2" data-object-manual-uuid="" data-resolve-url="true" target="_blank">Sales Orders &amp; Alternate Units of Measure</a></p>
