If 12 eaches equal a carton and each pallet is palletized with 42 cartons, then the Inventory Units / Storage&Handling Unit is 504 eaches.
2.Click OK.
Storage and handling Charge At Order or Receive Time has been enable, where the system will now auto calculate $4.50 for every 504 eaches at time of receiving and shipping.
