Introduction
UOM stands for Unit of Measurement. It refers to the standardized measurement units used to quantify and track quantities of items or products within an inventory system. UOMs can include units such as pieces, boxes, kilograms, liters, meters, and more, depending on the nature of the items being managed.
The BizGaze’s “UOM” app simplifies inventory management by providing standardized units of measurement, conversion capabilities, accurate tracking, and robust reporting features. It helps customers and organizations maintain inventory accuracy, optimize stock levels, improve operational efficiency, and make data-driven decisions for better inventory control and financial management.
