Summary	0010382: Standardised units for SPA
Description	Different businesses have different needs, but I believe that adding to the SPA standardised list of units would be helpful for reducing input errors and overall ease of use of the service. As well, it will simplify the integration with other services by providing a set list of possibilities. Of course important to notice that this will help to bring a bridge between different languages of customer and merchant, always translating to the customer's native language info about what he is buying, one piece of lime, or 1 kilo of it. I believe this change is not supposed to limit the merchant; if the merchant wants, he can still set a custom unit for the product.
Additional Information	Such a list can include: WeightUnitTon, WeightUnitKg, WeightUnitG, WeightUnitMg, WeightUnitOunce, WeightUnitPound, SizeUnitM, SizeUnitDm, SizeUnitCm, SizeUnitMm, SizeUnitFoot, SizeUnitInch, SurfaceUnitM2, SurfaceUnitDm2, SurfaceUnitCm2, SurfaceUnitMm2, SurfaceUnitFoot2, SurfaceUnitInch2, VolumeUnitM3, VolumeUnitDm3, VolumeUnitCm3, VolumeUnitMm3, VolumeUnitFoot3, VolumeUnitInch3, VolumeUnitOunce, VolumeUnitLitre, VolumeUnitGallon, Piece, Set, second, minute, hour, day, week, month, year For copyright reasons, this list was taken from Dolibarr llx_c_units with modification of the last word (e.g. pound), first letter capitalization (e.g. Pound).
