Managing Weights

You can manage weights by going to Configuration > Lists > Weight. The weight unit you use when configuring your products and shipping methods will always be the Primary Weight. The Ratio to Primary Weight will be used when weight values have to be converted into other weight units (e.g. if certain shipping methods need to transmit the weight value in a unit that differs from your Primary Weight).

If you change your Primary Weight, do not forget to update the appropriate ratios of the other units.

 

 

Managing Quantity Units

You can manage quantity units by going to Configuration > Lists > Quantity Units. The quantity units you enter here can be assigned to products in the Product Info Tab. 

 

Managing Dimensions

 

You can manage dimensions by going to Configuration > Lists > Dimensions. The dimension unit which you use when configuring your products will always be the Primary Dimension. The Ratio to Primary Dimension will be used when dimension values have to be converted into other dimension units (e.g. if certain shipping methods need to transmit the dimension value in a unit that differs from your Primary Dimension).

If you change your Primary Dimension, then do not forget to update the appropriate ratios of the other units.
