unit_pricing_base_measure

Optional Field

This field is optional, but omitting it may leave out functionality on Prisjakt for your offers

Description​

The product's base measure for pricing. This determines the denominator used for the unit price shown to customers (e.g. 100ml means the displayed price is calculated per 100ml). Use together with unit_pricing_measure to enable unit price comparison. Accepts a numerical value followed by a unit (e.g. 100ml). Supported units include weight (oz, lb, mg, g, kg), volume (floz, pt, qt, gal, ml, cl, l, cbm), length (in, ft, yd, cm, m), area (sqft, sqm) and per-unit (ct, sheet, item).

Validation Rules​

  • Must be a positive number followed by a supported unit with or without a space (e.g. 100ml, 100 ml)
  • Supported units are oz, lb, mg, g, kg, floz, pt, qt, gal, ml, cl, l, cbm, in, ft, yd, cm, m, sqft, sqm, ct,sheet, item
  • Must use the same unit type as unit_pricing_measure

Best Practices​

Do​

Don't​

  • Do not mix unit types between unit_pricing_measure and unit_pricing_base_measure (e.g. kg and ml)
