Redwood: Define UOMs and Their Conversions Using a New User Experience

Use a simplified set of Redwood setup task pages to create or edit units of measure (UOMs), their parent classes, as well as standard and item-specific unit conversion factors.

Use the Redwood set up tasks to take advantage of these improvements and simplifications in defining unit of measure data:

  • The existing five set up tasks for UOM-related business objects and conversion data have been simplified into three Redwood tasks
  • Standard conversions are now presented as an optional attribute of the unit of measure definition
  • Intraclass and interclass conversions have been simplified into a single item-specific conversion task capable of modeling both types
