Item Weight and Dimensions

In Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central you can set up weight and physical dimensions of an item per unit of measure.

This information is needed if you use delivery services which require weight and physical dimensions of a package to calculate the shipping cost, for example FedEx or UPS, or the internal Sana shipping costs calculation method based on weight. For more information about delivery services, see "Shipping Methods".
