Modelling a non-mass material

When adding a raw material, some data may be expressed in a unit other than the kilogram (hence the name non-mass data).

For this data, it is necessary to enter the amount of material in its unit (m², piece, etc.) as well as the associated unit mass. This information is mandatory for calculating the integrated mass of material, particularly for the supply phase.

In some cases, a default unit mass from the database is displayed to make it easier to fill in this field.

It is possible to define a default unit mass for data by creating dynamic private data directly from the database interface.
