Set Up Units of Measure

You must set up time units of measure (UOM) in Oracle Inventory if you plan to use wait times in strategies. For the UOM to appear in the Work Item Template, you must create the UOM under the UOM class, (DO NOT use TIME class). You must also set up the conversion rates for the UOM.

Note: Please note in order for Advanced collection to calculate the wait time correctly, you must use base unit hour.

In addition, the Time Unit of Measure Class profile option must be set.

Note: If you have already configured other financial applications, you may have already set up UOM.

  1. Using the Inventory responsibility, navigate to Unit of Measure Classes.

    From the list of classes, select the Class you want to use and then select Units of Measure. Define the units of measure you will use for wait times in strategies.

    Base = Hour.

    Day = conversion 24

    Also create additional units in case needed and make sure the conversion is correct.

    Note: The base unit has to be hour.

    After entering the units of measure, select Conversions and enter the conversion values for the units of measure.

  2. Using the System Administrator responsibility, set the Time Unit of Measure Class profile option at Application level to Collections using the class you created with base unit hour.
