The unit of measure control allows you to specify how the item is physically packed.

 

Click the drop down button and select a unit of measure from the list.

 

If you do not find a suitable unit of measure in the drop down list, you may enter up to 4 characters in this field to represent the item's unit of measure.

 

If the non-inventory item is to be sold by the pound you must set the unit of measure to LB..
