Configurable Unit of Measure Types on GTM Objects

This feature enables you to configure the units of measure (UOM) displayed in certain quantity fields on the license line and trade item structure. Using a property, you can define the UOM types to display. For example, you may only want to show UOM Types such as Quantity, Volume and Count in the quantity fields.

License Line - Authorized Quantity field

A new property called 'gtm.licenseLine.authorizedQuantity.displayUOMTypesForQuantity' is introduced, enabling you to list the UOM Types that should be displayed in the Authorized Quantity field on the license line. Multiple values are separated by a comma. In this example, the property is configured as follows:

gtm.licenseLine.authorizedQuantity.displayUOMTypesForQuantity = QUANTITY,VOLUME,COUNT

When creating a license and specifying the Authorized Quantity, only UOMs associated with the UOM Types listed in the property are displayed.

Trade Item Structure - Quantity field

A new property called 'gtm.structure.quantityUOM.displayUOMTypesForQuantity' is introduced, enabling you to list the UOM Types that should be displayed in the Quantity field on the trade item structure. Multiple values are separated by a comma. In this example, the property is configured as follows:

gtm.structure.quantityUOM.displayUOMTypesForQuantity = QUANTITY,COUNT

When creating a trade item structure and specifying the Quantity, only UOMS associated with the UOM Types listed in the property are displayed.

Business Benefit

This enhancement reduces the work for users to select correct values in drop down, saving time and effort.

Steps to Enable

To configure the UOM Types displayed on the license line or trade item structure, configure the properties within Configuration and Administration > Property Management > Property Sets. Only the DBA.ADMIN user can access and use the Property Sets page.
