Hi, I was asked a question today regarding the physical dimensions on the product. Product information management/Released products/Managed inventory/Warehouse/Physical dimensions
When these are entered they are based upon your company settings. We’re in AUS so we’re using meters/centimeters and kg/grams. My questions: When we’re entering these what are the measurement expected by AX? Are we entering in kg or grams, in meters or centimeters? Is this a parameter controlled setup?
Cheers Soren

Hi Soren,
As Rob shared, you can set system units at Org admin -> Setup -> Units -> Units. Select your unit and set the “System Unit” flag to yes. Note you can only have one system unit per unit class, so you can’t set Inches and MM to the system unit, as they are both in unit class “Length”.
The Physical Dimensions form will then display the system unit of measure for Length and Mass unit class.
