-When to use packages, packagings or unit of measures ? 
-=======================================================
-
-For example, you are sellings eggs. In your warehouse, you manage the
-eggs individually. Lots of eggs are scrapped and you do it egg by egg.
-The **unit of measure** is ``Unit(s)``.
-
-If you are selling eggs by the dozen, the selling **unit of measure** is
-the ``Dozen``. You will set it on your sale order.
-
-The ``cardboard trays`` that contains the dozen of eggs is the **packaging**.
-
-When you are selling several trays, you might wrap all the trays into a
-``box`` or in a ``plastic`` wrapping. It is the **package**.
