Inputting Item Weight

JUYBoutique20 — Sat, 07 Mar 2026 22:01:09 GMT

I'm working on inputting the weight for all my items so that I can transition to real time shipping calculations. If I have an item that is 0.31 fl oz, how do I input that into square. It looks like the only option is pounds. Thanks.

Hey @JUYBoutique20 Jacqueline,

You can use a fluid ounce by an item when selcting the "unit" in the item price key creation. This works well for inventory tracking purposes...but...for shipping isn't everything sent by weight?

I have never seen UPS or FEDEX ask me for the liquid volume of something I'm shipping which is why I'm asking.

Thanks...I think I'm just overthinking the whole process. When I enter each of my items in square in order for real time shipping to be calculated, each item must have a weight attached to it. I didn't weigh the example above on the scale, I literally took the weight from the bottle instead. I got confused because I was thinking I would have to round anything under a pound up to that because I only saw the pound option listed.
