Item’s weight and dimensions are important for shipping purposes. When you record these details, it allows shipping carriers to calculate accurate shipping rates based on the size and weight of the package. Shipping carriers often have different pricing structures based on weight and dimensions, so providing this information helps in determining the most cost-effective shipping method for your products. This ensures that you charge your customers the correct shipping fees and helps avoid any discrepancies or issues with shipping costs.
