In this section, you will find settings that apply to packaging.

Manage packaging as an extra part type?

If you check this option, an additional part type called G = Packaging will be displayed in all procedures where you can choose a part type. Only use this alternative if this part type needs to be used, in other words, if you have entered different kinds of packaging (boxes, crates, etc) in the part register. You can register different kinds of package types on a packaging part, such as EU-pallet, Carton, etc. The setting is activated by default.

Set price on fictitious parts in customer / purchase orders?

Here you can select whether a fictitious G-part (main part) should be row type 1 with price or row type 4 as an additional text on customer and purchase order rows.

If the setting is checked (default) a fictitious packaging part will be seen as row type 1 with price on order rows. Incorporated packaging parts will then get row type 6 and zero in price on the order rows. If the incorporated packaging parts have linked text rows, these rows will then get row type 16.

If the setting is not activated then a fictitious packaging part will get row type 4 as additional text and zero as price on order rows. Incorporated packaging parts will then instead get row type 1 with price on the order rows. If the incorporated packaging parts have linked text rows, these rows will then get row type 4 as usual.
