Unit of measure class defines the groupings of units of measure (UOM). For example, the
Currency unit of measure class groups various currencies, such as euros, dollars, and
rupees.
From the App Launcher, find and select Unit of Measure
Classes.
Click New.
Enter a name, a unique identifier code, and a description.
If necessary, select a default unit of measure.
If you don’t select a default unit of measure, Salesforce uses the unit of measure within this
class as the default unit for all conversions. If no unit of measure is available, create
a new record.
Select a type.
Usage
For measuring consumption in non-currency units, such as API calls, GB, or
hours.
Currency
For measuring consumption value in currency, such as USD or EUR.
Token
For measuring redeemable credits.
When you select a Unit of Measure, align the category with the Unit of Measure class.
For example, the Data class uses the Usage category, with GB, MB, and TB as the units
associated with the usage type. The Currency class includes units such as USD, INR, and
EUR and requires the Currency category because it represents currency types.
