CBM (Cubic Meter) is a metric used to measure the volume of a shipment. It is commonly used in logistics, shipping, and warehousing to calculate space requirements for storage or transportation.
In NetSuite, CBM (Cubic Meter) calculation is typically used in the context of managing dimensions and volume for shipping, warehousing, or inventory purposes. While NetSuite does not calculate CBM directly out-of-the-box, you can set up custom fields and formulas to calculate CBM based on item dimensions.
Formula for CBM Calculation
The basic formula for CBM is:
CBM=Length×Width×Height1,000,000text{CBM} = frac{text{Length} times text{Width} times text{Height}}{1,000,000}CBM=1,000,000Length×Width×Height
- Length, Width, and Height should be in centimeters (cm).
- Divide by 1,000,000 to convert cubic centimeters (cm³) into cubic meters (m³).
