Oracle Service Cloud Developer 2016 — Question 8

A buyer often orders an item BA82829 by box but the store manager stocks the item as individual units by using the "Each" unit of measure. Item BA82829 can be ordered from three suppliers and the box sizes differ by supplier (12, 24 and 36). Identify the correct option to set up these units of measure in Product Hub (PIM).

Answer options

• A. Create multiple BoxY UOMs, where Y is the quantity per box, and an Each UOM, and assign them to different UOM classes.
• B. Create a Box UOM and an Each UOM and assign both to the same UOM class.
• C. Create a Box UOM and an Each UOM and assign them to different UOM classes.
• D. Always use the Each UOM and do not create Purchase Orders for Box.
• E. Create multiple BoxY UOMs, where Y is the quantity per box, and an Each UOM, and assign them to the same UOM class.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because having both a Box UOM and an Each UOM assigned to the same UOM class allows for proper management of both packaging types without confusion. Option A and E suggest creating multiple Box UOMs, which is unnecessary and complicates the system. Options C and D do not provide the flexibility needed for varying box sizes and purchasing processes.
