Setting Up Search Sequence Using Price Units of Measure

Access the Item Unit Of Measure Conversions form.

You can specify multiple units of measure to locate base prices and adjustments. For example, you can specify that pallets are the first unit of measure for the system to use when searching, then cases as the second unit of measure, and then boxes. You can set up as many as eight sequences for a specific item and the search sequences do not have to follow a certain progression.

The system uses the conversion factors to convert adjustments into the other unit of measure. For example, if the system locates an adjustment using the transaction unit of measure, the system also displays the pricing unit of measure. The system uses the unit of measure conversion factors to recalculate the adjustment in the pricing unit of measure

You can set up two price unit of measure sequences: one for sales and another for procurement.

The system uses these tables for processing search sequences using units of measure:

  • F41001

  • F41002

  • F4072

  • F4106

Sales UOM Seq. (sales unit of measure sequence)

Enter a code that determines which from level units of measure the system uses when searching for base prices and adjustments. This code also determines the order in which the system searches for the units of measure. The system always searches first for the unit of measure with the smallest sales price code value.

Procurement UOM Seq. (procurement unit of measure sequence)

Enter a code that determines the units of measure for the from level that the system uses when searching for purchase prices and adjustments. This code also determines the order in which the system searches for units of measure. The system first searches for units of measure that have the lowest purchase price code value.
