To create a unit type in the first (Unit Types) block on the Unit Types tab, enter the type name in the Unit Type field and the descriptions in the Short Desc and Description fields. Then save the new unit type. If you want to query the existing unit groups, you can use the LOV in the Unit Type field.
The following unit types are used in the software with this specified spelling and must not be changed:
-
CURRENCY
-
DIMENSION
-
PKG_WEIGHT
-
QUANTITY
-
VOLUME

In the second (Unit Type Details) block, select units from the LOV to assign them to the unit type. You can select units from all available unit groups.
Unit groups are being replaced by unit types, starting with Smart Materials Portal.
