Trading partner item-specific UOM

This section describes how to enable and setup UOM for specific items for a specific trading partner. For example, you order zip ties that come in packs of 100. Your unit of measure is PK but the vendor UOM is EA. You can enable a UOM cross-reference for PK and EA for a specific item number for a specific trading partner ID. It is like the trading partner specific UOM setup with the addition of an item number.

This functionality uses your item number, not the vendor item number.
