4. In the field Product, select the desired packing material, e.g., Euro Container.
5. Optional: In the field Unit Measurements, select the unit for the measurements of the packing material and enter the respective dimensions into the fields Length, Width and Height.
6. metasfresh saves the progress automatically.
