Enter the item's weight net weight in this field, if the weight is always the same or constant.

 

The extended weight of items with a non-zero constant weight is determined using the following formula:

 

Quantity shipped or ordered * Constant Weight

 

 

 

NECS recommends entering the constant weight of all applicable items regardless of whether or not they are sold on a per pound basis.

 

By doing so the total weight of purchase orders, invoices, and even the total weight on a truck can be properly calculated. Weight information can also be printed many reports and some invoice types will print the total weight of the order at the bottom of the invoice.

 

 

 

If the item's weight varies from case to case the constant weight should be set to 0.00.
