### Measurement Unit
By default part instock is counted in number of individual parts, which is fine for things like electronic components, which exists only in integer quantities. However if you have things with fractional units like the length of a wire or the volume of a liquid, you have to define a measurement unit.
The measurement unit represents a physical quantity like mass, volume or length.
You can define a short unit for it (like m for Meters, or g for gramms) which will be shown, when a quantity of a part with this unit is shown.
