Let me share some information about the availability of the unit of measure (U/M) in QuickBooks, LAG1.
The single and multiple units of measure for items are only available to the following QuickBooks products and editions:
- QuickBooks Accountant
- QuickBooks Premier Contractor
- QuickBooks Premier Manufacturing & Wholesale
- QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions
- QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions: Contractor
- QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions: Manufacturing & Wholesale

Based on the screenshot you've provided, it's possible you're using other Industry Type in your QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise. You'll want to use the U/M feature, it would be best to contact your accountant first if you're planning to switch to a different Industry type.
