This field is used to specify the percentage of the item's extended weight that used to derive the gross weight of the item on an invoice.

Suppose the gross weight should be 5% of the item's extended weight. You would enter 1.05 in the Tare Weight Multiplier field.

 

 

If the item weight was 10 pounds, the gross weight would be 10.5 pounds, which is calculated using the formula:

 

10 * 1.05 = 10.5 pounds
