The menu display unit is used to display your products on your Meadow embedded (online) menu, POS, and on receipts. It will not affect how inventory is tracked in the system. This unit (gram/item) coincides with the 'Amount' field in the pricing section to create an accurate description of a product.
[Menu Display Unit - gram], [Amount - 3.5] displays as 3.5 Grams
[Menu Display Unit - item], [Amount - 1] displays as 1 Item)
