Using conversion factors for Formulation

The UOMSTRCONV method is used for formula workflows only.

In this example, the UOMSTRCONV method creates a conversion factor. The parameters that follow the method are the unit of measure.

  • (oUom) is the unit of measure that is converted from.
  • ("KG") is the unit of measure that the number is converted to.

Dim oUom As Object = ObjProperty("UOMCODE")
Dim oFactor As Object = ObjMethod("","","UOMSTRCONV", oUom, "KG")
Dim oYield As Object = ObjProperty("YIELD") * oFactor
Dim oMethod As Object = ObjMethod("XGMITEM",oItemkey, "setdefaults", 
oFormula, oVersion, oYield, oProcessYield)
