Changing Default Units of Measure
Windchill MPMLink objects are defined with a set of attributes for such things as time, cost and dimension.
The default system of measurement is metric. To change this, for example to the US system, modify the following preference using the Preference Management utility:
Attribute Handling > Measurement System
To change the default unit for an individual attribute, such as time, cost or dimension, use the Type and Attribute Management utility.
• To change the default unit for a given system, for example to change all times to minutes, use the Manage Measurement Systems window.
• To change the base unit of measure for a given attribute use the Manage reusable attributes window. Navigate to the attribute you would like to change, and enter the new value in the Override field.
