Using the DMM tool, if the standard unit in IFS for INCH is ‘in’, will a part migrate if it’s unit in the legacy system is ‘IN’? Does the legacy unit case affect if the part will/will not migrate?

Hi ​@matt.watters,

Not sure about DMM, but yes, I experienced this behaviour in an interface mean for creating Inventory Part in IFS Cloud through another legacy environment.

Legacy env was sending Inventory Part request with UoM PCS, and IFS Cloud has UoM as pcs, and all such requests were fallings in error, so we can say UoM is case sensitive in IFS.

In Short: Yes.
