The unit of measure must be specified in the e-invoice. This is output as a code in the electronic invoice (XML file). The "Sales unit to code" mapping ensures that the sales unit of the item is translated into the correct codes without having to process all items individually.
If there is no sales unit, the mapping can use the sales content unit instead, provided the sales content is 0 or 1.
