Fields | Description
Unit Set | A group of unit codes that can be linked to standard or customized items, or to item defaults. In a unit set, you can indicate the physical quantities that can be used for the item, in which modules, and for what purposes.
Unit | The physical quantity in which an item or good is managed. For example, a quantity of wood can be expressed as a length by using the unit of one meter, or as a volume by using the unit of one cubic meter.
Inventory | Indicates if the unit can be used in inventory. For details, refer to Permissions for units.
Order Management | Indicates if the unit can be used in Order Management. For details, refer to Permissions for units.
Manufacturing | Indicates if the unit can be used in Manufacturing. For details, refer to Permissions for units.
Price | Indicates if the unit can be used for price calculations. For details, refer to Permissions for units.
Storage | Indicates if the unit can be used for storage. For details, refer to Permissions for units.
Direct Rounding | Indicates whether you accept discrepancies between quantities in inventory unit and storage unit. Discrepancies can occur when regular rounding is used, causing inventory to gradually 'disappear.' To prevent discrepancies, set Direct Rounding to No. Allowed values Yes Quantities in inventory unit or storage unit are rounded using the rounding factor defined in the Units (tcmcs0101m000) session. No ERP LN considers whether regular rounding would result in discrepancies between the quantity in inventory unit and the quantity in storage unit. If so, ERP LN replaces values in such a way that the quantity in storage unit can be expressed in the quantity in inventory unit. Example Item X, inventory unit ‘pcs’, rounding factor 1.0. Item X is purchased in kilograms, conversion from kg to pcs is defined as 1 kg = 4 pcs. Rounding factor for kilograms is 0.1. If 5.6 kg is purchased, and regular rounding is applied, a problem occurs. Quantity in pieces is 4 * 5.6 = 22.4 pcs. Using regular rounding will result in 22 pcs, causing 0.4 pcs to 'disappear.' In this case, ERP LN will replace the 5.6 kg value with 6.0. Note This field is only available if Storage is set to Yes or Stop. If Storage is set to No, this field displays Not Applicable.
