Preprocess unit texts (form)

Applies To: Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R3, Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 R2, Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012 Feature Pack, Microsoft Dynamics AX 2012

Click Preprocessing upgrade checklist > Prepare application data for preprocessing > Unit texts.

Use this form to define how preexisting, company-specific unit texts are consolidated into a set of shared, language-specific unit texts. Unit texts are printed on external documents such as invoices. If no unit text is associated with a unit of measure, the symbol of the unit of measure is applied.

Note

When you start preprocessing unit texts, all unit texts associated with each unit of measure are listed in this form. In cases where there is more than one unit text per language for a shared unit of measure, the texts must be aligned so that there is only one text per language.
