Packaging in Qbil-Trade covers the way goods are packed and shipped to a warehouse or a receiver. One or more packaging can also be placed on a pallet. Packaging can change in the logistical process. Each packaging has its properties such as:

• Shortcode
• Quantity per packaging
• Unit
• Tare weight
• Dimensions

The packaging feature in Qbil-Trade provides information about different types of packaging that a company can use for its products.

Packaging can also be set as a product’s default on the screen. In this section, you describe the dimension, quantity per packing and unit of the package. This helps in regards to not having to fill this information manually each time a contract is being entered in Qbil-Trade.
