Ok so your talking about receiving different UOM like from different
suppliers but you want one UOM to sell.
That seems to be something to setup per supplier and use the normal
conversions available now.
Unless you expect to get different UOM from the same supplier, in which
case I can see your point.
However while doing this Please leave some room to use it as the person
selling wants to have different UOM to sell as Finished goods, so code
can be added to generated the Virtual/variants products and pricing.
so a link from your new UOM would have a reference to the UomConversion
entity for you price variance.

Thank you BJ,
I had in mind to create and 'productUomAlternatives' table to the
product with a conversion for example from pieces to boxes with an
optional price adjustment percentage.
The system will have however only one uom where everything gets
converted to.
Anybody else other solutions?
Regards,
Hans.

Yes also like a Feed store will have boxes, Sacks, and loose feed.
I used the multiple pricing model for the Uom Measure
in the product screen made it allow multiple UOM.
added to the code that converts from what is received in inventory to
what is sold so it walks through the Uom. for instance a feed store
Receives feed in Bulk and then sacks it as inventory is required.
The Inventory levels have to be checked to see how many in a product
run to generate to sack up the grain. This Triggers an Seca.
I think a nice touch would be that the could generates the product data
to show up in orders, based on the Uoms that were generated for the
products. it would follow the same model for inventory levels on the
orderentry and Ecommerce

A question to the community:
sometimes the same products are sold with different units of measure.
Example gold jewelry.
Per piece, per box of 10, per box of 50 and per gram gold weight.
Is here a preference how to implement that?
Remember this has to show up in e-commerce, orders, shipments and
invoices...

Hans
