How to add a record​

Required permission
Data › UOM › Create
  1. Open Data › UOM.

  2. In the empty row at the bottom of the list, fill in:

    FieldWhat to enter
    CodeA short code.
    NameThe unit name (required).
    RemarksOptional notes.
  3. Click ✔ at the end of the row to save it.

To change a record, edit it in the list and click ✔ (requires Data › UOM › Update). To delete one, click 🗑 (requires Data › UOM › Delete). You can't delete a record that's already in use.

To add many records at once, use Import in the toolbar (requires Data › UOM › Import Excel).

Example. Add PC (piece), BOX, CASE and KG. A product counted in pieces gets Default Unit PC; on its Unit tab you add BOX = 24 PC and CASE = 96 PC, so it can be bought by the case and sold by the piece or box.
