Purchase unit in Master planning in Dynamics 365 Supply Chain

We all want master planning to match the demand with supply and when suggesting supply options for e.g. purchase orders, the qty and unit should be shown in purchase UOM for the item.

Note* requirement qty is always what MRP has planned for which is in inventory UOM.

However in planned orders the Purchase unit and purchase qty is also separately captured.

It can be seen in details screen by clicking on planned purchase order (PPO) or by personalizing the grid

When the PPO is firmed. the purchase unit of roll is what gets reflected on PO
