Dear All, Thanks for all of your replies, help and knowledge you shared.
The only reason for dual UOM is we can not use unit conversion due to the constant difference in weight and quantity. Desired UOM's are Weight and Quantity of Item Actually We need Dual UOM but we don't need Dual UOM. We Need Quantity of Items for reporting to know the number of a particular items in stock. needed to be printed on SO/Invoice for customer that how many pieces are being dispatched & on material receiving numbers of items received! We don't need Weight (tons/kilos) would our default UOM and all the costing would be calculated based on default UOM without any unit conversion. What do you think about this scenario can't we we can cover this requirement by adding one field for Number of Items on PO, adding it to item master, printing it on (customized) inventory reporting and on SO form and reporting? do you think still it is going to be a huge change in system? Need your valued opinion Thank you Regards Naeem Sarwar On Dec 19, 2007 10:48 AM, Barunava Pal <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Naeem, > This is a huge requirement, and we have done it for one of our project.
