Good question.

Hi @bharat1958

  1. Create an Item- Steel Bar, Default UOM=kgs,
    In UOM Conversion table add the following,
    a. UOM = Tonne, Conversion factor = 1000 (this will pop up automatically if you use the standard UOM Ton or Tonnes)
    b. UOM = 2.217 kg piece (I would suggest using Length, like 100 mm length bar, you can find this using the dia of bar and density of steel = 0.785kg/m3), using in meters or mm will make it easy for people cutting the bar, Conversion factor = as applicable
    c. Set Purchase UOM in Item Master as Kgs or Ton as applicable

Create BOMs with UOM = Nos. , the system will calc based on Default UOM automatically while making Stock Entries

Consumption will always be in terms of your Default UOM

Hope this helps
