Flat Pack/Unpack (Red): Select this option if you would like to charge your flat packing rates for this customer.

Hourly Pack/Unpack (Green): Select this option if you would like to charge your hourly packing rates for this customer.

Item & Total QTY (Yellow): This section will list the packing materials added on Step 3 and the total quantity you will be providing.

Pack QTY (Pink): This is the number of items from the left (Yellow) that you will be charging pack labor for.

Unpack QTY (Brown): This is the number of items from the left (Yellow) that you will be charging unpack labor for.
