InformationTitleUOM vs UOP and Qty Per UOPContentContentThe Unit of Measure (UOM) on a Part is the measurement distinction of how a Part is consumed. Consuming a Part includes checking a part out to a Work Order, to an Asset, or a Cost Center. The Unit of Purchase (UOP) is the measurement distinction of how a Part is purchased. Purchasing a Part involves receiving a QTY of a Part to a Warehouse and Stock Location, or receiving the QTY directly to an Asset or Work Order. Additionally, the Qty Per UOP is how many individual consumable units (UOM) are in a Unit of Purchase. As an example, if you are purchasing Eggs for your plant, the UOP for Eggs would be "Carton". A Carton of Eggs contains 12 eggs, so the QTY per UOP would be 12, and when you go to use the eggs (UOM), you would use each Egg individually, so the UOM would be Each. Notes on UOP VS UOM VS Qty Per UOP: If, when consuming a part, a single part would be checked out/used, we would suggest setting the UOM to EA or Each. When purchased a Box of Parts is ordered. The Unit of Purchase (UOP) is "Box". If each Box contains 10 individual Parts, then The Qty Per UOP is 10. If 2 Boxes of Parts are received from a PO the resulting Quantity on Hand will be 20. If a Part is Purchased on a PO, and is Received to a Work Order, the shown QTY will display based on the UOP. The maximum quantity that can be received is 999,999. If Quantity to Receive times Qty Per UOP will cause an excess of 999,999 to be received the Qty Per UOP or Quantity to Receive must be adjusted. URL NameUOM-vs-UOP-and-Qty-Per-UOP
