Box Calculation
At Urbano order creation, the plugin will automatically calculate the needed shipment boxes. This calculation is offered as best effort calculation, meaning that the calculation might not be as accurate as human mande. It's important that boxes quantinty remains the same to the ammount calculated by the plugin to avoid Urbano rejections, but the box sizes can vary a little.
