Working with Different Units of Measure 
You may want to buy or sell items using a different unit of 
measure than the one you use when stocking your items. For 
example, you might buy and stock potatoes by the kilogram but 
sell them in five-kilogram bags. You can set up this relationship 
so that when you sell a bag of potatoes, Simply Accounting 
knows that this represents five kilograms of your stock.  
 
To set up different units of measure for inventory items: 
1.  In the Inventory and Services window, open the inventory 
item and click the Units tab. 
2.  Type the unit of measure you use to stock the item. 
3.  Uncheck the Same As Stocking Unit box for selling or buying 
units. 
4.  Type the unit of measure that you use when selling or 
buying. 
5.  Type the number of stocking units that make up a buying or 
selling unit or vice versa. For example, if the stocking unit of 
measure is kilograms and the selling unit is grams, you 
would enter 1000 in the first box and select Grams per 
Kilogram in the second box:
