Units of Measure & Product Variants

Not every product is sold by the piece. Electrical distributors sell wire by the foot, building suppliers sell materials by the sheet or square foot and steel distributors deal with different lengths, dimensions and quantities. Generic inventory systems struggle when the same product is purchased, stocked and sold in different units.

VitalGap is built for these complexities. Products can be managed with different units of measure, dimensions and variants, with conversions handled within the system. Whether you're selling full sheets, cut lengths or fractional quantities, your sales and inventory teams work with consistent product information.

• Multiple units of measure for purchasing, stocking and selling
• Unit conversions, including feet to inches and square metres to square feet
• Product variants based on size, dimensions and specifications
• Support for decimal and fractional quantities
• Flexible quantity entry for products sold by length, area or unit
• Consistent product quantities across sales orders, purchasing and inventory

Who it's for: Electrical, HVAC, building materials, hardware and steel distributors managing products with different sizes, dimensions or measurement requirements.
