You use the I/C Units of Measure screen to add the units of measure (UOMs) in which you buy, sell, price, and stock your inventory items. Units of measure can be numbers of items, dry measures, liquid measures, or multiples of stocking units. When you add an item to inventory, you choose the group of units you need for the item.
Note: If you want to restrict your system to these units of measure, choose the Only Use Defined UOM option on the Processing tab of I/C Options screen. Otherwise, you can use other units of measure with items.
