[millisami]

Can anyone plz explain what this Package Tare Small to Medium and Larger packages in Configuration>Shipping/Packaging menu is?
I couldn't get the clear picture of it.

This refers to an average weight applied to the packaging materials used for this size package

Thank for the reply.
But can you plz explain a bit how it is applied with some figures?

Copied directly from the admin > config > shipping > Package Tare Small to Medium - added percentage:weight

What is the weight of typical packaging of small to medium packages?
Example: 10% + 1lb 10:1
10% + 0lbs 10:0
0% + 5lbs 0:5
0% + 0lbs 0:0

I am also wondering OP's question and it hasn't been answered yet... Maybe I can put it differently...

What is "small" "medium" and "larger"? Are these things defined by weight somewhere? If so, where? How do I customize the definition of "medium" so when my packages go from poly-mailer size to box-size the shipping weight calculation reflects that?

I think I may have worked it out. I posted in another thread already.
