Create units of measure assets

Units of measure are pre-populated in the WebSphere Commerce Server database when an instance is created. You can also define new units of measure in WebSphere Commerce for use in your store, or delete units of measure that you do not want to use in your store.

To define new units of measure for use in your store, add information to the following database tables:

• 
  QTYCONVERT

• 
  QTYFMTDESC

• 
  QTYFORMAT

• 
  QTYUNIT

•
