Linking a Measurement Unit Template to the Product

Daftra enables to create unit templates for the products or services you offer to your business, such as: (kg, meter, carton, hour, session … etc.), and they can easily be linked to the product or service you provide, along with adding a price for this unit to clarify and calculate it in the invoices you issue to your client.

 

You must first “activate measurement unit templates“, then “add a measurement unit template” for the products existing on your system.

  1. Click on “Inventory” from the main menu.
  2. Click on “Products &  Services”.
  3. Either Add a new product/ Adding a new service or Edit the product/service.
  4. Select the template from the “Unit Template” field.

  6. Select the unit used for purchasing the product from the list next to the “Purchase Price” field.
  7. Select the unit used in inventory movements for the product from the list next to the “Initial Stock Level” field.
    • Note: This option is available only when adding a new product, and not visible during editing.
  8. Fill in the remaining product/service details as required.
  9. Click on the “Save” button.
