The OPC UA Variable Type MaterialQuantitiesType describes the quantity of a given material in base unit of measure and, optionally, in logistics unit of measure (Variable QuantityInLUoM).

Figure 28 shows an overview for the MaterialQuantitiesType with related Variables. It is formally defined in Table 74.

The MaterialQuantitiesType is formally defined in Table 74.

The MaterialQuantitiesType VariableType is a concrete type and can be used directly.

MaterialQuantitiesType is a subtype of MaterialQuantityType thus it inherits all the properties and the variables of the latter. MaterialQuantityType is defined in 8.1.

The following Objects are defined to extend the MaterialQuantityType.

The Property QuantityInLUoM is the quantity of the material in logistics unit of measure. It is optional.
