Structure Management ─ Deployment and Administration

Define units of measure

Unit of measure is an attribute of the item. In Structure Manager, the BOM engineer specifies the value of the Quantity occurrence property in the units of measure for the component item (for example, 1.5 L for an Oil item). The BOM engineer can optionally specify a quantity for a structure line in a user-defined unit of measure. To enable this option, you must set the Fnd0PSEQtyConversionDSName and Fnd0PSEEnableQtyConversionUOM global constants and create an XML file specifying all UOM conversion rules that are valid at your site.
