Setup Units of Measure

Commerce One provides many standardized (ISO) Units of Measure (UOM) with the Procurement application.

You can modify any of these standard units to suit the needs of your system.

To add new units of measure, consult with Commerce One Professional Services.

To modify a unit of measure:

1. In the Tree Menu, select Setup | Units of Measure.

The Advanced Administration Application displays the Unit of Measure form, with a list of Procurement application UOM Short and Long Descriptions.

2. Click [Edit] beside a UOM.

The Advanced Administration Application displays the Edit UOM form.

3. Click in the Short Description text box and type a short name for the UOM to be used internally.
4. Click in the Long Description text box and type a more descriptive name for the UOM (maximum 255 characters). This is the description seen by users.
5. Click the Active check box to make the UOM available to users.
6. Click:
• [Save] to save the modified UOM and leave the Edit UOM form, or
• [Cancel] to leave the Edit UOM form without making any changes.
