Working with Measurement Types

A measurement type classifies related groups of units of measure. For example, a bit rate measurement type classifies units of measure such as bits per second (bps), kilobits per second (kbps), and so on. Other possible measurement types include weight and amperage. Measurement types and units of measure are required to create capacity types. See "Working with Capacity Types" for more information.
