how to change the the item unit of measure

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

To change the item unit of measure in NetSuite, you need to follow these steps: 1. Navigate to the item record that you want to change the unit of measure for. 2. In the item record, look for the 'Units Type' field. This field determines the unit of measure for the item. 3. Click on the 'Units Type' field and select the desired unit of measure from the drop-down list. Please note that you cannot change the base unit of measure. You can only change the purchase, stock, sale, and consumption units. These units are derived from the base unit of measure. Also, keep in mind that each item can have its own conversion rate. If you need to set up a unique conversion rate for an item, you may need to create a client-side script to handle this. If you are dealing with complex units of measure, especially in manufacturing, it's recommended to do extensive research before making changes as NetSuite's Units of Measures module can be complex and convoluted. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
