That *is* the issue. If I am using OpenERP for just accounting, I have 
products, and the products have units of measurement, and I might want 
to manage those. In my particular case, we are a service company, and 
some services are priced by the day. But, without this setting enabled, 
all services are billed by the hour, and there's no way to change it.

But the problem is that without the sale module installed, I can't 
enable this setting, configuration -> sales -> "Allow using different 
units of measures", precisely because there is no configuration -> 
sales, because the sale module isn't installed, because I'm not doing 
sale orders in OpenERP, but just accounting. Make sense?

Title:
  "Allow using different units of measures" setting is a product
  feature, but defined in the "sale" module which may not be installed

Status in OpenERP Addons (modules):
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The product module defines the group product.group_uom, or "Manage
  Multiple Units of Measure". I can enable technical features, then
  assign this under the access rights for each user, but this is
  tedious.

  The solution seems to be enabling the "Allow using different units of
  measures" setting under Settings -> Sales. However, this is defined in
  the "sale" module.

  If I install the accounting application, the product module will also
  be installed, and I will have products, and I might want to have
  different UoMs on my invoices. But, "Allow using different units of
  measures" won't be available to me, because the "sale" module isn't
  installed.

  I think that setting should be moved to the product module, so it's
  always available in any configuration that has products.
