What do you get out of it?

A product is priced and billed in the unit you actually sell it in, and that unit prints on the invoice. A customer reading the bill sees pieces, packets or litres rather than a bare number they have to interpret.

How does it work?

  1. 1

    The unit sits on the variant

    Each product variant carries its own unit, so the same brand sold as a piece and as a case can be described correctly in both forms.

  2. 2

    It follows onto the invoice

    The unit is stored against the invoice line, not looked up afterwards. Reprint a bill from six months ago and it still reads the way it did the day it was raised.

  3. 3

    You choose the vocabulary

    The unit is free text, so you use the words your trade uses — box, pkt, dozen, mtr, kg — rather than picking from a list written for somebody else's shop.

  4. 4

    Purchases speak the same language

    Buying in the same unit you sell in keeps stock arithmetic honest and makes the supplier's invoice easy to check against yours.

What situations does it handle?

Sold loose and in packets

Keep them as separate variants with their own units and prices. Each then carries its own stock and its own margin.

Trade names for units

Free text means a phrase your customers recognise is as valid as a standard abbreviation.

A customer asking for a case

Set the case up as its own variant with the case price, rather than doing arithmetic at the counter every time.

How do you get more out of it?

  • Use the same abbreviation everywhere — pick pkt or packet and stay with it. Consistency is what makes reports readable later.
  • Set units while adding products; adding them afterwards means editing records you have already billed against.
  • Where you sell both a single and a bundle, price the bundle as its own variant so the discount is deliberate rather than mental arithmetic.

Common questions

Can I sell products in different units?

Yes. Each product variant carries its own unit, so the same item can exist as a piece, a packet and a case — each with its own price and its own stock.

Does the unit show on the invoice?

Yes. The unit is stored on the invoice line itself, so it prints on the bill and stays correct on any reprint later.

Am I limited to a fixed list of units?

No. The unit is free text, so you can use the words your trade actually uses rather than choosing from a preset list.
