Flexible Unit of Measure Transactions

Items can now Dispense, Return, Receive, Transfer, and View on all available unit of measures. For example, when scanning a box of gloves, it can now be Dispensed as 1 box instead of individual gloves. The system remembers the unit of measure selection and will default to that selection on future transactions. For example, when the unit of measure of gloves is changed from ‘glove’ to ‘box’, all future dispenses for that specific item will dispense at the ‘box’ unit of measure level.

Choosing the default unit of measure for Dispense

• The unit of measure dispensed is now the default for all future dispenses
• To change the default, perform a dispense with a different unit of measure selection

Items dispensed can be returned in the same unit of measure or return partial quantities. Only up to the total amount dispensed can be returned.

• Select Return and the transaction row being returned
• Select the item or items being returned
• To change the unit of measure, select the three dots in the upper left corner
• Use the unit of measure drop down if changing unit of measures being returned

View inventory in different units of measure

All inventory on the AccuShelf can display their on hand quantities in the item’s unit of measure.
