UDI Measure Units
The UDI measure unit codes are used to describe the clinically relevant quantities in their various forms. Users can add default codes, delete unused default codes, and add their own codes. The codes are used in clinical sizes, storage and handling types and UDI-DI storage conditions.
Tip
Use the predefined views to filter the page to Default or Custom codes.
Insert Default Codes
Choose the Insert Default Codes action to insert measure unit codes of different categories predefined by the app.
If there is already a code with an identical name, it will not be updated. This means that accidentally deleted default codes can be restored at any time by using this function.
Note
Default size types can also be created by choosing Actions > Insert Default Codes on the UDI Setup page. However, this function also adds UDI Symbol Codes, UDI Sterilization Methods and UDI Size Types.
