Unit of Measure Conversion
Use this widget to perform a conversion between Units Of Measure (UOM) and the available alternatives defined for a specific item in 'Item. Connect Alternate U/M' (MMS015).
When you select an item from either the Item Details widget or from M3, you can view details, such as the item number and name, basic UOM, total and basic weight, total and basic volume, net weight, and free cap units.
After the summarized details, you can select these tabs, Display and Calculate UOM. The Display tab, which is also the default tab on the widget display, shows the default unit of measure and all the alternate unit of measures that are mapped to your item. Additional details for each unit of measure such as the defined quantity, conversion factor, and gross weight of your selected item are displayed. On the Calculate UOM tab however you can convert the default UOM, for example Kilograms (Kg), to an alternate UOM, for example Pounds (Lb), where UOM conversion is based on the conversion factor between Kg to Lb as defined in (MMS015) and the quantity that you have specified in the widget.
You can change the title of the widget as necessary.
