    Possibility for multiple saleable UMs?

    Is there anyway to sell an item under multiple, interconvertible units of measure?

     e.g. We buy landscaping stone by the ton and people either would like to see how many tons they bought or the estimated amount of square feet of their purchase on their invoice.  We inventory by the ton but would like the flexibility to sell by either unit, anyone know how we could accomplish this?

    This is accomplished using the Units of Measure Schedule in inventory setup.  For example:

    If the main unit is POUND then,  POUND = 1 POUND, 1/2 TON = 1000 POUND, TON = 2000 POUND, SQFT = 10 POUND, etc.

     The Unit of Measure schedule is assigned in item maintenance.  You can then buy and sell in any quantity set up in the unit of measure schedule.  So you could buy or sell by the TON, SQFT, 1/2 TON, POUND
