Package Type Properties
Package types are used if a product is available in different packages, for example, bag, hard box, mini bulk or bulk. When setting these up, there is a Unit Size that will make sure users enter quantities of a certain increment.
A package type is listed in the Package types folder under a category.
To edit the properties of a package type, right click on the package type's name and select the Properties menu option.
To add an item, right click on the parent folder and select the Add New Package Type menu item.
The package type properties window has the following tabs:
A package type can have a separate name and abbreviation. The abbreviation will be used in areas where there is limited space available. These can be the same if needed. Package types are not allowed to be deleted from the system, but they can be hidden which will allow discontinued products to be removed from lists.
Package types have pricing in three tiers.
Note: Package types may have a price associated with them that will be added on to the base price of a product.
