• Key Concepts: 
  A delivery unit is a unit of measure used in the LOD-EMS Entitlement Management System (EMS) to track the delivery of entitlements. It is used to track the delivery of entitlements from the point of purchase to the point of consumption. The delivery unit is typically a unit of time, such as a month or a year, but can also be a unit of quantity, such as a number of users or a number of transactions. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The delivery unit is used to track the delivery of entitlements from the point of purchase to the point of consumption. When an entitlement is purchased, it is assigned a delivery unit. This delivery unit is then tracked throughout the life cycle of the entitlement, from purchase to consumption. The delivery unit can be used to track usage and ensure that entitlements are not over-consumed. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When purchasing entitlements, it is important to consider the delivery unit that will be used for tracking. Different types of entitlements may require different delivery units, so it is important to select the most appropriate one for each type of entitlement. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the delivery units are properly tracked throughout the life cycle of the entitlement.
