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).

You can select an item from the Item Details widget in your homepage or workspace, or from Infor M3. Depending on your item, you can convert its default UOM, for example Kilograms (Kg), to the alternate defined UOMs, for example Pounds (Lb), where UOM conversion is based on the conversion factor between Kg to Lb defined in (MMS015) and the quantity that you have specified in the widget.

You can change the title of the widget as necessary.
