------------------------------------
Hi [~hansbak],
{quote}isn't this uomId field not meant to tell more about the quantity? it is possible to add a non-product item and then this field can be used to indicate if per piece, per kilo, per gallon etc....
{quote}
As the *uomId* field is populated with currency info in the demo data and the field name is generic, we can deprecate *uomId* field and add *quantityUomId* field to *InvoiceItem* entity.
We can create a file like
datamodel/entitydef/deprecated-entitymodel.xml
and add deprecated field i.e.
{code:xml}
<extend-entity entity-name="InvoiceItem">
<field name="uomId" type="id"></field>
<relation type="one" fk-name="INVCE_ITM_UOM" rel-entity-name="Uom">
<key-map field-name="uomId"/>
</relation>
</extend-entity>
{code}
Users can have the option of not loading deprecated-entitymodel.xml by commenting it out from ofbiz-component.xml

> Currently the InvoiceItem entity has the field uomId, per:
> {code:java}
> <field name="uomId" type="id"></field>
> {code}
> per the demo data this field is used to capture the currency of the invoice item. This is, however, wrong. The currency for invoice items is set in the invoice entity record (with field currencyUomId.
> The uomId in the invoice item is related to the quantity set, and must be correctly named: 'quantityUomId.
