Pick an item and a unit. Try Quintal or Pound for the rice, or 2.5 Boxes of masala.
Item › UOMs (stock unit: Kg)
Conversion Factor
25
1 Bag = 25 Kg. From the item’s own UOMs table.
Everything is kept in the stock unit
Buy in bags and sell in grams if you like; stock is always counted in the item’s stock UOM.
Set the factor on the item
The item’s UOMs table wins. The global conversion list only fills in units the item does not mention.
Whole-number units
Nos, Box, Pair and Unit refuse fractions — on the line and in the stock quantity it converts to.
Every line has a conversion factor to the item’s stock unit. The stock quantity is the line quantity times that factor, and stock is always kept in the stock unit.
First the item’s own UOMs table, then its template’s, then ERPNext’s global UOM Conversion Factor list — directly, the other way round, or through a shared unit.
ERPNext uses 1 without warning, so 1 Packet would count as 1 Kg. Add every unit you use to the item’s UOMs table.
Box is a whole-number unit. ERPNext refuses a fraction in a whole-number unit, both on the line and in the stock quantity it converts to.
Yes. A rate per bag is a rate per stock unit divided by the factor — ₹1,800 a 25 kg bag is ₹72 a kilo.
We set up units and conversion factors per item, so purchase, sales and stock quantities always agree. Talk to a consultant.
