In this video, learn how to use Units of Measurement (UOM) in Zoho Inventory to sell and purchase products in the exact quantities your customers need. This powerful feature ensures flexible selling while maintaining accurate inventory valuations and reports.
✔ What You'll Learn in This Video:
Understanding Units of Measurement:
Set up products to be purchased in one unit (e.g. metres) and sold in another (e.g. centimetres).
Use UOM conversion to simplify billing and sales processes for fractional quantities.
Practical Example with Ribbon:
Purchase ribbon by the metre at £0.60 per metre (e.g. buying 10 metres for £6 total).
Sell ribbon to customers in centimetres without manual conversion.
Example: selling 75cm auto-converts to £0.75 at 1p per centimetre.
Viewing Inventory Valuation:
Navigate to Reports, Inventory Valuation Summary.
Confirm that stock levels adjust correctly based on unit conversions (e.g. selling 75cm reduces stock by 0.75m).
✅ Key Business Benefits:
Flexible Selling: Sell in customer-preferred units (cm, grams, litres, pieces) while purchasing in bulk units (m, kg, boxes).
Automated Calculations: Avoid manual conversions and reduce pricing errors.
Accurate Reporting: Maintain clean, consistent inventory and financial reports despite unit differences.
Enhanced Customer Experience: Provide seamless fractional sales for items like fabric, piping, wire, screws, and chemicals.
