Description

gtm.convertUom.usePre23BDeprecatedBehavior

24A

Before 23B, for a quantity type Unit of Measure (UOM), if conversion factors were not present at the item level, they were not looked up further if conversion factors existed in the UOMMAP table. Quantity was just converted to target UOM (with factor as 1 and no error thrown).

From 23B onwards, for a quantity type UOM, if conversion factors are not present at the item level, they are further looked up if conversion factors exist in the UOMMAP table. If any factor exists, it is utilized for conversion. If it does not exist in the UOMMAP table, an error is thrown.

The application expects conversion factors be defined. However, to avoid adding conversion factors for all items, you can use this property to default to the earlier behavior. 

If the property is set to true, pre-23B behavior will take effect. 

If the property is set to true, you will be able to utilize the behavior to use global conversion factors from the UOMMAP table for quantity type UOM conversion.

Default: false
