Unit of Measure Identification

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 5

Hi guys, hope everyone is doing fine. 

The company that I work at currently have some issues as they mis defined some of these units on the system. (Generally with the wrong definition of BOM and Inventory Unit) 

They generally buy and sell the items as cartons in business operation, however they do some in house manufacturing (unpack, pack, sterilization of a product etc.) as well. The base unit has been defined as a carton or pack which seems not efficient in the system. The need is to go with each as a base unit of measure (UoM) which will be the lowest consumption unit (unit layers differs such as carton, pieces/each, pack, bag, inner bag etc.)

I was wondering what are the criteria to identify Sales Unit, Inventory Unit, Purchasing Unit, Sales Unit and Base Unit of Measure in MS Dynamics365? If any of them mis defined again, can it be reverted to old version?

Also what may be the positive/negative effects of going each as a base UoM across all business operations.

Kind regards,

Umut
