The benefit of Epicor Kinetic Advanced Unit of Measure functionality is that it delivers a simplified approach to finding the right inventory by segmenting inventory with inventory attributes such as length, hardness, strength, modulus of elasticity, or density. Because the inventory is segmented, it is easily located, physical counts are more meaningful, and the business can plan inventory needs at the attribute level to ensure accurate supply and demand. Reuse the same part number for different attributes.
Some of the most immediately-felt benefits of UOM include:
Reduce carrying costs with greater visibility of on hand inventory
Find the right inventory faster for greater customer responsiveness
Improve inventory accuracy by transacting in dual units of measure throughout ERP
Improved Planning of inventories in production activities
Better quality tracking at the attribute level
More accurately forecast inventory future needs
