Adding and assigning units is a quick, one-time process.
Navigate to the Units section from the Settings area. You will see a list of all currently defined units.
Click "Add Unit" and enter the unit name (e.g. kg, hrs, pcs). The name appears on product records and printed documents.
When creating or editing a product, select the appropriate unit from the dropdown. The unit is then used on every document line item.
When the product is added to any document, the assigned unit is displayed in the Unit column automatically.
Everything you need to manage measurement units across your product catalog.
Define any unit your business uses — kg, pcs, hrs, L, m, box, roll, set, pair, and more. No limit on the number of units.
Units assigned to products appear automatically in the Unit column on all document types.
One unit definition is reused by as many products as needed. Update the name once and it propagates everywhere. Learn more →
Rename or correct any unit at any time. The updated label is reflected instantly across all associated products.
Remove units no longer needed. Past documents retain the original unit label even after deletion.
Search by name in the unit dropdown when assigning to a product — find the right unit without scrolling.
