    3. Select the Unit from the dropdown (you can Search to identify the Unit more quickly). A light blue banner appears below, based on the values entered.

      1. Format: 1 [Name] equal to [Measurements] [Unit]

      2. Example 1: You buy a 5kg potato bag but when you make a Menu Item you use potatoes in grams, then you need to make a Unit conversion from kg to grams. So, it would be 1 bag of potatoes (5kg) = 5000 grams.
