Units Setup
Units are used in items to define how an item is measured.
Introduction & Best Practice:
When you create your items you need to define how their weight, length, size, etc are measured. To do that you must define the units your company needs.

ADMIN SETTINGS FOR UNITS:
Navigate to: Admin > General Settings > Units
- Click "ADD UNIT" in the right-hand corner
- Add an ID - if needed
- Add the unit name as you wish: cm, meter, g, kg, inches - or any other unit name that you need
- Toggle to the right (yes) to be able to write the unit as a fraction when used.
- If no is selected (toggle left) the unit will be considered numeric and you will not be able to write fractions for example in the default quantity on items
- Click "Save"
NOTE: If you have an integration with an ERP provider, make sure that the IDs and Unit names are identical.
DELETE A UNIT
It is possible to delete units that are no longer in use.
Simply mouse over the unit row you want to delete and click the delete icon.
If the unit is in use, and you want to delete it, you must find out where it is used - most likely in an item - and change it here first.
