About User Define UOM Codes
Oracle Intelligent Track and Trace supports user defined UOM codes for lot-controlled or serial-controlled items in your supply chain network.
As a founder administrator, use the following properties to define a UOM code of your choice:
- Code: A string that uniquely identifies the UOM code. For example, BAG.
- Label: A string describing the UOM code, such as sack, bag and so on.
- Description: A statement describing the UOM code.
- Conversion Factor: A constant value by which the unit of measure is multiplied and converted to a base unit.
Scenario
Let us assume that the items shipped are packed in a carton and each carton contains 24 bottles. In this case, you can configure the user defined UOM code as:
Code | Label | Description | Conversion Factor |
---|---|---|---|
CT | carton | A carton of 24 bottles. Empty bottles used as raw material | 24 |
The following table is an example of the category to which the code
belongs and its corresponding base unit of measure.
Unit of Measure Class | Unit of Measure | Base Unit of Measure | Conversion Factor |
---|---|---|---|
Quantity | Carton | Each | 24 (One carton = 24 each) |
