Phase 1: Registering the Base Unit

- Locate the primary unit field and define your base unit (this represents the smallest individual unit typically used for standard customer checkouts, such as a single bottle or box).
- Fill in the remaining asset data and click Save.
Phase 2: Activating and Linking a Sub-Unit
Operational Note: Before configuring complex unit packaging layers, you must first navigate to your system Settings menu and check the box to enable the Multi-Unit Feature.

- Confirm your smallest single package layer is selected in the Base Unit field.
- Scroll to the lower multi-unit management section to add new unit layers for bulk scaling (the sub-unit represents your larger packaging tier, such as a wholesale carton, pallet, or bundle).
- Input the exact conversion factor in the conversion field (for instance, if a wholesale carton contains exactly 12 individual bottles, enter 12).
- Define the unique retail price assigned to this larger bulk unit.
- Click Add to lock the sub-unit structure into the product configuration table.
- Review your input base rates, wholesale bulk prices, and conversion ratios, then click Save to commit your final adjustments.
