Hi Matt,The units in the supplier should be the buying units (bottle in both examples).  Only used for buying information though.  I know of no programming link that checks the supplier units against the selling units in order to check if a price update will occur.   The only supplier component that is used during the unit price calculation is the package units and the list price. Unit Price updates should occur if the supplier list price has changed and the automatic update flag is set on the supplier information being updated.CheersTony On Mon, Nov 16, 2009 at 11:34 AM, <matt@companionanimalvet.com.au> wrote:

When adding new products I am finding the entry of units very confusing. Lets say you're adding a 20ml bottle of koagulon injection which will be sold by the ml. You set a unit price and the selling unit is set to mls. Then you add a supplier. To get the unit price to work here you need to set the package size to 20 and the package units to mls (if you set the package unit to bottle the unit price doesn't get updated).

Now let's add some tablets, to be charged out per tablet. Change the selling unit to tablet. Under the supplier tab based on the previous example you would think that you would need to make the package unit tablet but if you do that it doesn't update the unit price. Set the package unit to bottle and it updates the unit price correctly.

Is this a bug, or am I misunderstanding which units it is asking me for?
