According to the regulation on packaging and packaging waste management (http://www.pisrs.si/Pis.web/pregledPredpisa?id=PRAV6416#) the option to enter the weight of each product packaging as well as the option to print the total sum based on the issued goods is available in MK.

Included documents

All delivery notes for the provided period for all countries are included in the printout. Implementation was created, for example for the online stores, which import all products from third-world countries (i.e. China) and sell to final customers in the EU.

Data preparation DOES NOT take into account the following scenarios:

the entire stock of goods or part of them are sold to companies in EU countries (not to final consumers)

Composite products

Composite products are supported too. This means that the packaging value can be entered for the parent product and the components and such values will be taken into account when summing up the total.
Example: Product ''Cream 4 pack + additional gift'' is composed of 4x Creams (2g of plastic a piece) and 1x Sponge (3g of paper a piece). Ten products were sold. The total would be:

Plastic: 10 (sold products) * 4 (each package contains 4x Creams) * 2 (2g plastic a piece) = 80g
Paper: 10 (sold products) * 1 (each package contains 1x Sponge) * 3 (3g paper a piece) = 30g

Packaging consumed in production

If a larger amount of products is received in one packaging and such is thrown away, the discarded part must be manually recorded and included in the reported amount accordingly. In MetaKocka, such data cannot be recorded. Examples:

products received from the online store are packed in a large box with 100 pieces inside and such a box is thrown away
the consumption of material that arrived packed in a large quantity inside the box, is recorded in the work order,
