when i receive inventory i need to record how many pieces, how many boxes, and how many pallets it came in. The problem is that the conversion between pieces, boxes, pallets is variable, every transaction it can be different so i cant use the units of measure to accomplish this. For example - on one transaction i can have 100 pieces in 2 boxes, next time it can be 100 pieces on 5 boxes etc. Does someone know the best way to do this?
thanks Zhu! I didnt know those fields were there - adding something similar should work
Hi, I think you can add new fields, or directly use the fields below, and fill in the quantity you need when order entry.
Hope this can give you some hints.
Thanks.
ZHU
any ideas or suggestions of how the customization would work?
you may consider do a customization, there is not out of box for it.
thanks - but that doesnt really answer my question.
Every transaction i need to record 3 units of measure - are there any examples how this can be accomplished, other than saying there is no best way to do it?
there is no best way. in location is not directed, system always use base uom to record transaction on item ledger even user specified different uom on the line.
if the location is directed, system will not use base uom and will use alternative uom instead
