    Packing Unit is basically used for accounting the Packing material used while dispatching Sales Material.

    - If a packing unit has been assigned to the item in the selected sales order line, the packing unit and packing unit quantity are loaded automatically. In this case, the quantity is calculated based on the ordered quantity (in inventory units) divided by the packing unit factor.

    - When the sales order line is posted, the packing unit and packing unit quantity is taken from the sales order line. You can, however, change the values in the Update, print, edit and inquire in connection with invoice. form (Line details tab). This is relevant when the sales order is partly invoiced.

    For your scenario, you need to consider Implementing Catch Weight Unit

    Hi Huma, another thing you could investigate is 'Shipments'. In WMS a shipment is defined as: "A shipment is a collection of items that are packed in the same container for transport by, for example, ship, rail, truck, or plane. A shipment includes all of an order, a part of an order, or a consolidation of multiple orders." so maybe that fits to your carton. Help text is here:
