The unit of measure entered in the Group Price Unit of Measure field on the Buy/Sell Group Maintenance screen must be a unit of measure assigned to the price line in Price Line Maintenance.
The system keeps the following three running totals for that group:
The unit of measure that comes from the price line, if one of those units of measure is selected.
The total weight.
The total dollars of the sales order.
Use the least common denominator such as each (ea), but the measure could be in units such as feet and inches if a product such as wire is involved.
The unit of measure for a combination group, defined in Combination Group Maintenance, of which this product group is a part will override the unit of measure that is defined for the group.
