Configuring Units of Measure

On the Units of Measure page, the administrator can add, edit, and soft-delete (it may be in use) a measurable identifier that is related to a spend type (Goods or Services, or both). As a result, administrators can add a unit that is meaningful to their business type or approach to identify spend.

A set of default units, such as Box, Hours, and Each, is included. These units are linked to a spend type in the Category column. The Default Services and Default Goods check boxes allow the administrator to specify a single unit type that will always appear as the default choice when a user selects either the Good or Service spend type while creating a purchase request.

1. Select Edit on the Units of Measure tile.
2. Select New on the Units of Measure page.
3. Enter the following information in the Add New Units of Measure window.
   • Name: This is the name of the measurable identifier.
   • Code: Select an arbitrary code for the measurable identifier. SAP Concur recommends that you choose a two-letter code.
   • Category: This is the spend type of the unit of measure.

1. Select a row on the Units of Measure page, then select Modify.
2. Change the relevant fields on the Modify Units of Measure page.
3. Select Save.
