Product units are the units of measurement used for products in agrē (e.g., acre, MT, jug, case). Each product must have at least one main unit. You can specify additional unit types but must enter the conversion factor (e.g. 1000 kg in 1 MT; 4 jugs in 1 case).
The master list of Units resides on the FCL mainframe. Use the Manage Product Units window to activate/deactivate product units.
What you'll find:
Tip
Edit all units before clicking Save since saving also closes the window.
The list of Unit Types in your agrē database is synced with the master list of units on the FCL Mainframe. You can activate and use any of the Units listed.
To activate a product unit
Navigate to Inventory > Manage > Product Units.
The Manage Product Units window opens.
In the Active column, check the box.
Click Save.
If there's a unit type you no longer need you can deactivate it. After a unit type has been deactivated it can still be used with products that already have that unit type (until you deactivate it on the units tab of the product) but you would not be able to add it as a new unit type to any other products.
To deactivate a product unit
Navigate to Inventory > Manage > Product Units.
The Manage Product Units window opens.
In the Active column, uncheck the box.
Click Save.
