Product Specifications are used to identify specific information about how a product was created, stored, or any other info that may be tied to a specific product. This feature is mostly used for asphalt products, where you would need to document any measurements, temperatures, or other conditions depending on a product's source. You can turn on Product Specifications from the Desktop Scale App settings. 

NOTE: Please contact us at support@tacinsight.com or call 865-219-2980 during business hours if you are interested in using Product Specs for setup assistance. You will need a customize ticket for your product specifications to print on your ticket.
