Autodesk PLM 360

[#1]

Inventor's content center parts which have a unit of measure of mm have a description of Millimeter.

However, the BOM UOM Picklist in PLM 360 has the unit name listed as Millimeters, with the s on the end. The result is when you try to sync a BOM item from Vault to PLM 360 using the sync tool you get the following error, if you are mapping units:

PLM/Vault synchronization on machine MOYSEPC1 failed: entity=[Hettich Wardrobe Oval Tube Anodised 048 999 Id=447431].PushEntityToSession(session=[AU 2012])

Hi Scott,

By default your PLM 360 tenant should have Millimeter available in the Unit of Measure picklist.

Can you go to the UOM Manager in the Administration Menu / Setup / General tab and confirm?  You can take the "s" off Millimeter there if necessary.
