Description

We need to have Inventory - Inventory Supply Real Time subject area to have UOM under Primary UOM available instead of Purchasing UOM. Currently it only shows quantity under purchasing UOM, which we believe it is more reasonable to have it under Item Primary UOM since it is subject area for inventory management. 

Use Case and Business Need

There is an ER 27497283 implemented UOM for two Inventory Subject Areas only : Inventory - Inventory Balance Real Time & Inventory - Inventory Transactions Real Time. Which enabled UOM conversion on the items ('available UOM' attribute). However, we think the subject area: Inventory - Inventory Supply Real Time has more significant need for the UOM conversion to be available. It shows the item inbound quantity but only available in purchasing UOM. Which we think it is essential to have the UOM shown in item Primary UOM. The same information is available in Inventory Management application->Review Item Supply an Demand task, which is using item Primary UOM instead of purchasing UOM.  It is only reasonable to have the Subject Area showing the same thing as what we have available and shown in Inventory management application.
