Definition

Use

In this field, you can enter the target unit of measure. During query processing, the system converts all quantities of the result data from their original unit of measure to the target unit of measure. The only exceptions are quantities where you select the No Conversion checkbox in the corresponding query result field.

If appropriate conversion factors are missing the conversion fails and the system aborts query processing.

Dependencies

The system can perform unit conversions only on result fields of data type Quantity.

Example

KG (kilogram), L (liter), M (meter), EA (each), PAL (pallet)
