How to add a Purchase UoM for a Product
1. This tutorial shows how to add a "Purchase Unit of Measure" to a product. This feature allows users to buy products in different UoM than what it is sold.
Please note, you cannot purchase and sell using different UoM categories. UoM's must belong to the same category. (For example, you cannot purchase in milliliters and sell in pounds. Those are two different UoM categories. You could however, purchase in US Pounds and sell in US ounces.)
To be able to do this you will need to make sure that the Purchase Packagings is enabled and you have created the applicable UoM's that you will be using.
