When entering dimensions, Epicor Manifest Edition will look at dimensions for two reasons:
a) Calculate Dimensional Weight.
b) Calculate a Large package surcharge.
This process is done behind the scenes and only the actual entered dimensions will be displayed.
If the dimensional weight is greater than the actual weight of the package; Epicor Manifest Edition will return the freight charge based on the greater weight.
If the package meets the large package criteria; ISM will add the additional charge to the freight charges (fixed at $45.00).
Calculations for Dimensional Weight:
1. International Shipments
L x W x H (cubic inches) / 139 = Dimensional Weight (pounds)
2. Domestic Shipments
L x W x H (cubic inches) / 166 = Dimensional Weight (pounds)
3. Large Package
The designation for a UPS Ground, domestic air, or UPS 3 Day Select package whose length, combined with twice the width plus twice the height, exceeds 130 inches, and is equal to or less than 165 inches.
