Note

Units are only available if the Article has a Pack Size >1. Units are a fraction of a Pack and the smallest qty that can be returned.

For Example if a product is sold as: Qty/Unit = Pack, Pack size = 4, UOM = 6 bottles... Then 24 Bottles are in a pack and 6 bottles are in a Unit and 6 bottles is the smallest qty that can be returned and they will be returned as 1 Unit

Units cannot be replaced - only packs can be replaced.
