How fast is it going in kilometres per hour? In metres per second? What is the maximum allowed footprint for your house in square feet? In square metres? If there are 60 tablets in a prescription, and each tablet has 4 mg, how many doses are in the 3 prescriptions (original + 2 refills)? In the Rounding field, select the method for rounding a fractional value when the conversion rule is applied.A child is prescribed a dosage of 12 mg of a certain drug per day and is allowed to refill his prescription twice. In this case you can set up a conversion factor with From unit = Box and To unit = Pieces, and then enter 1 in the Numerator field and 2 in the Denominator field. With the numerator and the denominator values, you can indicate whether the relation between the From unit and the To unit is a 1:1 ratio or if it is a fraction.įor example, you want to create a conversion rule for a product where only a half piece fits into a box. For example, the conversion factor from centimeter to meter is 100 because there are 100 centimeters in one meter. In the Factor field, enter a conversion factor between the From unit and the To unit. Kilograms are assigned to the Mass unit class and liters are assigned to the Liquid volume unit class. For example, you can set up a conversion rule for a product that converts kilograms to liters. Inter-class conversions - Rules for units of measure across unit classes. Pieces and boxes are both assigned to the Quantity unit class. For example, you can set up a conversion rule for a product that converts a box to the number of pieces in a box. Intra-class conversions – Rules for units of measure in the same unit class. Standard conversion rules can only be set up for units of measure in the same unit class. Standard conversions – Rules that apply for all products. In the left pane, select the type of conversion to set up from the following options: To modify an existing conversion, select it in the list. In the Unit conversions form, click New to create a new conversion rule. Use the following steps to set up a conversion for units of measure.Ĭlick Retail essentials > Inventory management > Setup > Units > Unit conversions.

The unit class represents a logical grouping of units of measure such as area, mass, or quantity. In the Unit class field, select a class of measurement for the unit. By using this association, specific units of measure can be identified by the business logic in Retail essentials and conversions between the units of measure are completed automatically. In the Fixed unit field, select a unit of measure to associate with the current unit. ![]() If the Fixed unit assignment check box is selected, you can identify the unit of measure as one of the fixed units of measure that are listed in the Fixed unit field. In the Description field, enter a descriptive name of the unit of measure. In the Unit field, enter a unique identifier for the unit of measure. To modify an existing unit, select it in the left pane. In the Units form, click New to create a unit of measure. Use the following steps to create a unit of measure.Ĭlick Retail essentials > Inventory management > Setup > Units > Units. Each unit of measure can have multiple unit conversion associated with it. If both a product-specific and a standard conversion rule exist for a unit of measure, the product-specific conversion rule is used to convert units of measure for the product.Ī conversion rule that is set up to, for example, convert minutes to days also covers the conversion from days to minutes. You can set up standard or product-specific rules for converting units of measure. ![]() For example, you might convert weight measurement units from pounds to kilograms. You can also set up conversion rules that control how units of measure are converted to different units of measure. You must define the units of measure to use for all of the products that you purchase and sell. For example, you might enter an order for a quantity of 5 bolts, which have a unit measurement of pieces. When you enter an order in Retail essentials, you specify a quantity and the unit of measure that the quantity represents. ![]() A unit of measure is a standard quantity, size, or other basis that is used for measurement or exchange.
