Once done, let's import your inventory item once again.
You can also read this guide about the usage of single and multiple units of measure for items.
Comment below if you have clarifications.
Thank you for your reply. The option to turn on the unit of measure is not available. It is greyed out. See attached.
I also tried to recreate the import mapping with no success.

I am having the same issue. It's like a flag in the software is inverted. When I enable units of measure, it tells me it was created in multiple and I am in single. When I change it to multiple, it tells me the mapping was created in single. It is comparing to every case but the current one, which suggests a software bug. Please fix this.
