MISys Manufacturing – Unit Weight

The ‘Unit Weight’ field in the ‘Master’ tab of the Item Master File is a value used for prorating Additional Costs when calculating the Landed Cost of an item. The unit of measure for the ‘Unit Weight’ is a global setting that is determined under Administration > Company Options ‘General’ tab. Once the unit of measure is set at his page, it’s applied to all items.

Assigning a unit weight to each item will then allow the user to divide the additional costs (e.g., freight, customs etc.) across different items on a Purchase Order based on the total weight of each item in the shipment.

For more information on setting up unit weights in your MISys system, feel free to contact us here at Central Nervous Systems.
