Production Structure Quantities: Units of Measure

Posted on by 5

I have a pallet of widgets that requires 1 bulk package per order. Order quantities range but essentially 1 package will work for 1 order.

My issue is that if I put the requirement on the Production Structure as "1 EA" it will drive a lot of packages that are not needed. If I put 1/"Max allowed per package" smaller orders may round down if under 50% of max.

Is there a way / built in Unit of Measure Code that allows me to allocate "1 per order" instead of "1 per widget"?

    Hi, This sounds like a new feature in BC20, but can't do it in NAV2013.

    Hope other experts can give you better advice.

    Thanks.
