Documentation

Definition

The total net weight for the item. The net weight represents the gross weight less the weight of packaging.

Use

The system calculates the net weight based on the order quantity for the item and the net weight proposed from the material master record. If the item has more than one schedule line, the system uses the total order quantity of all schedule lines to calculate the net weight. In sales documents where schedule lines are not allowed (contracts, for example), the system calculates the net weight using the target quantity.

Procedure

You can change the value manually at the item level.

Example

The gross weight of a refrigerator and its packaging (a cardboard box including protective padding) is 350 pounds. The packaging weighs 25 pounds. In this case, the net weight is 325 pounds.
