Define Calculation of Proportion Quantity from Base Quantity

In this step, you define the ratio of the proportion unit to the base unit. This ratio is needed to convert proportion units to base units of measure.

Example

A fruit juice contains vitamin C. You want to specify the vitamin C content of the drink in milligrams per liter.
To do this, in this table, define VC2 (milligrams of vitamin C per liter)=VC1 (milligrams of vitamin C) / liter (L).

Activities

1. Enter the unit of measurement that should be used in the characteristic.
2. Enter the proportion unit and the base unit you want to use for the calculation.
