Can I change the UOM deviation factors after I create an item?
Yes, in some cases the editing of the deviation factors is allowed after the item creation under certain conditions that won't impact downstream applications.
The attributes can be modified only if the new value is more than the value that the attribute is currently set to. For example, if your current positive deviation factor is set to 1.0 you can change it to a value greater than 1.0 such as 1.5, but not to a lower value, such as 0.5. This table demonstrates the changes you can make.
