Units of measure (UOM)

View as Markdown

A unit of measure tells EasyJewel how an item is counted. Gold chains are sold by grams, while items like gift boxes or coins can be counted in numbers.

Menu: Stock → Inventory → UOM

EasyJewel already has the two units most shops need:

  • Grams (Gms), with 3 decimals, for example 8.250 g
  • Numbers (Nos), with 0 decimals, for example 2 pieces
