About the Invoice Quantity Calculator
Most quantity errors on an invoice come from a unit mismatch. A wholesale order agreed in cases invoiced in units. Time tracked in minutes billed in hours. A price agreed per thousand charged per hundred. Each of them produces an invoice that is out by a factor rather than a rounding error, and a factor is the kind of mistake that ends a supplier relationship.
This converts between the units invoices actually use — cases and units, dozens, pallets and layers, minutes and billable hours, thousands for print and words for copy — and shows the line total each produces, so a mismatch is obvious rather than subtle.
It also answers the reverse question, which is the one clients ask: given a budget and a unit price, how much can they have? And it handles minimum billing increments, because a six-minute call billed in fifteen-minute units is a quarter of an hour, and pretending otherwise is how time gets given away.

Frequently asked questions
In whatever the price was agreed in, with the other shown in the description. A retailer needs the case price to pay you and the unit cost to set their own margin, so showing both is worth the extra column.
To the increment your terms state — six-minute units in law, quarter hours in many trades, half days for site work. Rounding to a larger increment than you agreed is the commonest source of billing complaints.
Yes for time and measure. For goods it depends on how they are sold — half a case is usually not a thing, and invoicing one invites a query about what was actually shipped.
The smallest unit of time you charge for, regardless of how little was used. A six-minute call under a fifteen-minute minimum is billed as fifteen. It must be agreed in advance to be chargeable.
