We did not set up any additional UOM Classes for similar issues. Within the existing UOM Class of Length, you can set up UOM's like: BAR20, BAR21, BAR12, BAR24 and BAR40, each of which will be available for all parts, and are defined as the listed number of feet. You could then Inventory the parts in BAR20 (for example) but could purchase in FT. We go one step further, and purchase in LBS with Part Specific Conversions. Feel free to contact me for more details.
