Definition

Use

The unit of measure is displayed for information purposes only. It is not taken into account during the calculation.

Exception:
When you add up weighted batch quantities or characteristics (in other words, when you use functions CPSM and CQSM), the system interprets the value that you use to weight the first value as a percentage if the description of its unit contains the percent sign (%) (see Functions for Calculations with Batch Data ).
