A special note about Quantity fields. Quantity fields enable users to allocate and track how much (quantity) of a resource is required when that resource is related to other GAL objects (Contacts, Documents, Resources, Plans, Tasks, Broadcasts, Decisions, or Forms).

For example, you can specify, based on the relationship between the Fuel Gallons and the Building, what quantity is necessary if there is a prolonged power outage at that site. The distribution center is allocated 5 50-gallon fuel tanks as specified in Quantity Field 2.
