Definition

Base Price Unit indicates the unit to which the base price applies.

Explanation

The base price unit describes how the price should be interpreted, for example whether the base price applies per piece, meter, kilogram, package, or another defined unit.

This information is important because it affects how pricing information can be compared, calculated, and used in recipients’ systems. If the base price unit is specified incorrectly, it may lead to misunderstandings or incorrect price calculations in areas such as purchasing flows, price lists, and e-commerce.

More information about approved units is available under Instructions for Units.
