The minimum and maximum breakdown for the item is only used for catchweight items that are also broken out of a case and sold as individual pieces.

 

entrée allows for special minimum and maximum weights to be defined when dealing with multiple pieces of an item. The reason for this is some distributors prefer to weigh all of the piece items as one and only track and enter a single weight into the system. By having the minimum and maximum weight definitions defined the warnings displayed while entering weights can be bypassed.
