Units of measure
Pieces, kilograms, boxes, litres. Units decide how stock is counted and how a price is read.
Steps
-
Open it
Catalog → Units.
-
Check the seeded list
Common units already exist from sign-up. Add only what is missing.
-
Set up a conversion
If you buy in boxes and sell in pieces, define the box as a multiple of the piece. Stock is always held in the base unit.
-
Attach units to a product
Units are chosen on the product, not globally. One product can be sold by piece and by box at different prices.
Good to know
- Stock is stored in the base unit no matter which unit you sell in, so your stock reports stay comparable.
