How to DELETE units of measure

We've been using QB POS for 20+ years and have accumulated dozens upon dozens of units of measure options over that time. We don't use most of them and would like to eliminate them from the massive pulldown list that we have to sort through. Does anyone know who/where to delete these?

How to DELETE units of measure

Hello there, @kcsv. I'm here to share details about deleting the Units of Measure (U/M) in your QuickBooks Point of Sale (QB POS).

 

You can delete your unwanted U/M by making them inactive in the Item profile. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to List and select Item lists.
  2. Open any Item profile.
  3. In the UNIT OF MEASURE section, choose the U/M in the dropdown you want to delete and click Edit.
  4. A prompt will show. Click OK.
  5. The Edit Unit of Measure page will show. Tick the Unit of measure is inactive box and select OK.UnitofMeasure.jpg

 

Do this to the other U/M you want to delete.

 

Additionally, you can run a report to get a comprehensive overview of your business finances.

 

Let us know if you have other concerns with deleting your U/M in QB POS. We're here to help you in any way we can.
