UOM Conversions for Inventory, Receiving, and Shipping Transactions

UOM conversions enable you to view different units of measure set up for an item in inventory transactions. With UOM conversions, you can order items in one unit of measure, and convert and fulfill the items in a different unit of measure.

The UOM conversions option is hidden by default. Enable UOM conversions by selecting the UOM Conversions item from the View menu on the following applicable pages:

  • Receive Expected Shipments

  • Put Away Receipts

  • Manage Transfer Orders

  • Create Subinventory Transfers

  • Create Interorganization Transfers

  • Confirm Pick Slips

  • Return Receipts

  • Cycle Count - Record Count Sequences

  • Physical Count - Record Physical Inventory Tags

  • Create Miscellaneous Transactions

  • Manage Shipment Lines

  • Manage Item Quantities

  • Manage Movement Requests

Select the UOM Conversions icon to access the View UOM Conversions page. On the View UOM Conversions page, you can view the UOM conversion between the transaction UOM and other item-specific defined UOMs.

Note: You can use UOM conversions if you have defined interclass and intraclass UOM conversions for your items.
