Hi Karen, We can change the Unit of Measurement at any time for the Item even if we have invnetory onhand. But we can not change if we have any open transaction exits for the Item. So if you really need to change, then you have to close or delete the open transactions for the item and then proceed.
But as per my knowledge, changing the unit of measurement is not recommended. We have ot fac lot of problems once after changing the Unit of Measurement. Also in axapta we have Unit conversion at item level. Check whether this helps out. But Changing the UOM is not recommended. If you need any clear information, you can revert back. Thanks, Naveen ________________________________ From: karenmgangus <karenmgan...@yahoo.com> To: development-axapta@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, 21 August, 2009 8:34:17 PM Subject: [development-axapta] change unit of measure We are in a manufacturing setting and often times need to change the unit of measure on an item. We have been told that this cannot be done when there is inventory on hand which makes sense. We were also told that this cannot be done when there is a cost and there will always be a cost, so.... We were told to delete the item at the developer level and reenter it, but this is also creating difficulties. Has anyone had experience with this in AX2009? Thanks Karen Love Cricket?
