How pack sizes are used
Quoting
When a customer requests a quote (RFQ), they select a specific pack size. Your quote is submitted against that pack size. If a customer needs pricing for multiple formats, each one is a separate line on the request.Pricing
When you send a price offer or set up a monthly price list, prices are set at the pack size level. A product priced at $5.00/kg in a 200L drum may have a different price in a 1000L IBC. Each pack size carries its own pricing.Ordering
When a customer places an order, they order a specific pack size. The pack size determines what gets shipped — the volume, the unit of measure and the packaging.ERP alignment
Pack sizes typically map to item codes in your ERP system. Keeping these consistent means orders flow through cleanly between ChemCloud and your internal systems.Example
A product like Industrial Methylated Spirits 95% might have three pack sizes:| Volume | UoM | Pack Size |
|---|---|---|
| 20 | L | Drum |
| 200 | L | Drum |
| 1000 | L | IBC |
