I had forgotten about the override. I had never gotten it to run 9.04. I'll give it a try in 9.05.

When using Part.UpdateExt in 9.05.700B any update to a part will clear the conversions under the partuom table. This is normally a very bad thing, but can be used to fix uoms. I have a service connect routine that does a GetByID, then UpdateExt, modifying part.number01 and passing the same data back. This changes all the conversion to 0 and allows them to be updated again. This can also be done with the business logic tester. (I would assume a updateable dashboard would also work)
