[jira] [Updated] (OFBIZ-12037) Bug in seed data for UomType / Uom

Nicolas Malin (Jira)

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-12037?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

ddev updated OFBIZ-12037:
-------------------------
    Description:
I found a problem in the seed data.  The kilogram, is under the wrong measure type.  The kilogram is a unit of mass, not a unit of weight. 

Explanation: The weight of a product/object changes with altitude, the mass does not.  (example: If you want to lower your mass, then you need to diet, but if you just want to weigh less, then just live on mars.)

(These are easy to confuse because of a naming collision:  there is a unit of mass called the pound and also unit of force called the pound)

Basically, we should change:

<UomType description="Weight" hasTable="N" uomTypeId="WEIGHT_MEASURE"/>

 To be:
 <UomType description="Mass" hasTable="N" uomTypeId="MASS_MEASURE"/>
 <UomType description="Force" hasTable="N" uomTypeId="FORCE_MEASURE"/>

 

With seperate Uoms under each UomType

 

Update: I've also found power Uom's in the ENERGY_MEASURE
