The following details how Product Weight, Tare Weight, Shipping Weight, Total Weight and Freight Weight are calculated on shipment records.
Users can assign freight charges on Sales Order and Inventory Transfer Shipment records. The weight assigned to the shipment depends on the item configurationproperties and on the transaction quantities. The Item record properties ‘Manage Items By’, ‘Unit Tare Weight’ and ‘Shipping Weight’ all impact how the freight weight is calculated. The following table displays how the freight weight is calculated for different Managed Items By -type items:

...

Product Weight

• Units Only Managed Item: (Units Ordered or Allocated * Shipping Weight Item Property) – (Units Ordered or Allocated * Tare Weight Item Property)

• Weight Only Managed Item: Weight Ordered or Allocated

• Units & Weight Managed Item: Weight Ordered or Allocated

...

Tare Weight

• Units Only Managed Item: Units Ordered or Allocated * Tare Weight Item Property

• Weight Only Managed Item: Tare Weight Item Property

• Units & Weight Managed Item: Units Ordered or Allocated * Tare Weight Item Property

...

Shipping Weight

• Units Only Managed Item: Units Ordered or Allocated * Shipping Weight Item Property

• Weight Only Managed Item: Weight Ordered or Allocated + Tare Weight Item Property

• Units & Weight Managed Item: If the item has a Shipping Weight property configured then: Units Ordered or Allocated * Shipping Weight Item Property

If the item does not have a Shipping Weight property configured then: Units Ordered or Allocated * Item Tare Weight + Ordered or Allocated Weight

...

Note: The Sales Order Shipment record allows users to select to view the ordered or allocated weight assigned to the shipment when the shipment status is new or released. When the shipment is marked as shipped, the weight is always displayed as the allocated weight.

 shipment record also allows users to assign additional gross weight, which is then added to the Total Weight calculation. The shipment record allows users to assign the freight rate to be calculated based on the gross or net weight.
