I believe I heard at the last Summit that Shopify is now able to offer multiple units of measure as an option. If so, other than adding the unit of measure conversion on the Stock Items screen is there any other setup that would need to be done in Acumatica?
Thanks

Hi folks
That said - Does the following match the challenge you’re asking about:
Do you have 1 Stock Item which you want to maintain as 1 SKU in inventory, but you need to sell in various UOMs? For instance, imagine the following:
If so, one of our team members created a 4 min video about this and how it’s handled with Acumatica and Shopify as well as BigCommerce. Link below.
Let us know if this is helpful, or if you have a use case which is different than this.
Thanks!
I am also interested in this! We currently use an attribute to designate different UOMs but they have to be separate stock items in acumatica so it’s not exactly the best
+3I attended the session: DTC for Manufacturers: Success Stories for Selling Direct-to-Consumer and Business-to-Business. The representative from Shopify was Sara N-Marandi who spoke about the new features they are rolling out. Josh Fischer was also a presenter in that session. I hope I didn’t hear incorrectly. Please correct me if I’m wrong about this info.
Do you know if there is a similar limitation with Big Commerce?

+1One more detail on this
This is not exactly what you’re asking for, but you and others may find this interesting.
Imagine you are shopping for groceries. You’re in need of peanuts. You’re not picky about the brand, but you are frugal. So it’s important to you to see the price in Ounces. The standard PDP will show price per container - maybe $9 here, $12 there, etc. But this new feature will allow merchants to also show the price per ounce for comparative shoppers. Neat feature.
