Definition of Load meter:
Load Meter can be determination for freight cost if the cargo fills the cargo space fully by width and height.
When using Load Meter, see the Load Meter field on the dialog above, the Area is calculated by multiplying the standard width (2400 mm) with the Load Meter [mm]. Then the width, length and height are not used on eCharter message.
