My Managers Report Shows Linear Feet but I though it was Board Foot?

The manager's report on the Crate Pro 6 beta version would print both linear and board feet for lumber. On the File Pro 11 build 2945 we are using now, we only get a linear ft total on that report. Can we get board ft to come up on that report?

For all versions:


The Managers Report Unit of Measure is based on your selected Tracking Level for that material in the Inventory module.


So in Inventory, if you selected to track lumber by Linear Foot then thats how its shown on the Managers Report and all other reports.

If the lumber is tracked by Board Foot in Inventory, then on the report you should see it shown as BF. For all materials the selected Tracking Level Unit of Measure is the displayed info on the reports for obvious reasons. 


To confirm, add a material with a different Tracking Level than the other materials in that group then create a design using that material. On all the reports that material will display based on the selected tracking level.
