Hello,
I am looking for a way to add a translation to my units of measurement.
Example STK (piece) -> PCE (Piece)
Where I can Add the translation for UOM - Unit of Measure
+18
Hello,
Translation from STK piece to PCE piece may be added in Configuration → UOM screen if you want the same translation for all stock items.
If different items have different translation, then add the translation in the Unit of Measure section on General Tab of Stock & Non-Stock Items screens.

Hello,
thanks for the answer.
I want to output the unit of measurement STK in the report for a customer from Germany, for customers from English it should then be pce.
Is there a solution for this in the system or is it only possible via IIf queries in the Report Designer?

I see! Language translation, not UOM translation!
For Language Translation, we have Translation Dictionaries. Do you have access to Acumatica’s document below, How to localize reports?

Some workaround could be:
you can create a custom table to add ad-hoc localization and join it to the report to display either EN or DE description on the report.
create table INUnitExt(
CompanyID int,
FromUnit nvarchar(6),
DescrDE nvarchar(6),
DescrEN nvarchar(6),
tstamp timestamp
constraint INUnitExt_PK primary key clustered (CompanyID, FromUnit))

I have now configured it via an IIf query in the report itself:
=IIf([Customer.LocaleName]<>'de-DE',
Switch(
[SOLine.UOM]='STK', 'pce',
[SOLine.UOM]='KG', 'KG',
[SOLine.UOM]='M', 'M',
[SOLine.UOM]='MTR', 'M',
[SOLine.UOM]='QM', 'QM',
[SOLine.UOM]='STÜCK', 'pce',
[SOLine.UOM]='L', 'L',
),
[SOLine.UOM]
)
Thanks for your help / ideas
