A unit of measure is unique and specific within a division. When an item is added to IntelliTrack, it MUST HAVE a unit of measure. This is because a unit of measure defines a base unit of quantity measurement for an item in your inventory. A unit of measure always contains a name. Units of measure are maintained at the Manage Lookups page\Units of Measure grid.
Default Unit of Measure
IntelliTrack automatically contains a default unit of measure, EA, as set for the division, which represents a quantity of 1.
If the user wishes to set another unit of measure as the default unit of measure, the user may add a unit of measure to IntelliTrack at the Manage Lookups page\Units of Measure grid. Any unit of measure added here will become available as a default unit of measure selection for the division.
Unit of Measure Options for a Division
The unit of measure setting for a division is set at the Division form\Options tab. IntelliTrack contains two options for using the unit of measure in a division:
- Default Unit of Measure: when a division uses the default unit of measure option, it automatically uses the default unit of measure, which has a count of 1. It is automatically added to the item.
- The system default unit of measure, EA, is automatically set for a division at the Division form\Options tab. It has a count of 1.
- Another unit of measure (if available) may be selected as the default unit of measure. It will automatically have a count of 1.
- The items in this division are restricted to the system default unit of measure with an each count of 1. When using the default unit of measure, items in this division cannot contain varying units of measure.
- Multiple Units of Measure: When the division uses multiple units of measure, the item does not automatically contain a unit of measure; you must add at least one unit of measure to an item and define an each count for it.
- You may add varying units of measure with varying each counts to an item.
- The unit of measure is added to an item from the Add Item form or the Edit Item form.
To expand the Units of Measure grid, click on the Units of Measure bar, the active lookup grid is collapsed and the Units of Measure grid is expanded.
The total number of records along with the total number of record pages is listed under the last list entry in each lookup grid. When the amount of lookup records exceeds 10, another page is added to a lookup grid. To reach the next lookup page, select the right arrow or the page number along the bottom of the list.
Filtering lookup data allows you to display only the records that meet certain criteria in the lookup’s grid. When filtering is applied to a lookup’s grid, only data rows that meet the specified criteria are displayed. You are able to build filter criteria and apply it to the lookup grid using the Header Filter of a column, which is found in the Filter Row of the grid. Lookup data can be filtered against a single data column or multiple data columns; see "Filtering Page Data" for more information.
Each grid in the Manage Lookups page contains Export buttons. For more information about exporting lookup grid data, see "Exporting Grid Data".
