      <Paragraph>You can specify a unit on the purchase order line. Because the
		item on the purchase order line can be used in any end item, and every end item
		can have units, you can enter any unit on a purchase order line. Note that the
		item on the purchase order line does not need to be a unit effective end item,
		that is, an item for which units are defined in the Effectivity Units
		(tcuef0502m000) session.</Paragraph>
      <Paragraph>In the following figure, unit 15 is defined for the conveyor. On
		the purchase order line of the gearbox, you can define unit 15, although unit
		15 belongs to a different item.</Paragraph>

      <Paragraph>Infor Enterprise Planning can also provide the unit information
		on the purchase orders. As described in Chapter 5, "Units in Enterprise
		Planning." planned orders in Infor Enterprise Planning contain unit information
		if the <GUIRef href="" role="manual">Unit Effective Supply</GUIRef> check box is selected in the
		Items – General (tibd0501m000) details session. This unit information is then
		transferred to Purchase</Paragraph>

         <Paragraph>In Infor Enterprise Planning, an item order plan exists for
		  the gearbox (based on the motor’s demand). One planned purchase order exists
		  for two different units.</Paragraph>
         <Paragraph>Transferring the order plan results in the purchase order and
		  purchase order lines. The lines contain the effectivity units.</Paragraph>
         <Paragraph>If the unit information is not relevant, you can decide to
		  clear the <GUIRef href="" role="manual">Unit Effective Supply</GUIRef> check box in the Items –
		  General (tcibd0501m000) details session. Then, for both planning and purchase,
		  just one line is created.</Paragraph>
