What is the dialog used for?

Create a conversion rule.
With unit conversions it is possible to set up a conversion between units, for example to make a rule about how many cans are in a box or how many grams there are in a kilo.
The unit conversion can be set up globally or for specific items. The value in the Factor field is the number in the rule to multiply the From unit to get the result in the To unit.
From unit x Factor = To unit
