A package is a physical container holding one or more products. Packages can also be used to store items in bulk.
Packages are commonly used for the following purposes:

Storing items in bulk.
Package use is a field on the package form in Odoo that is only visible by enabling the Batch Transfers and Packages features ().
By default, the Package Use field on a packages form is set to Disposable Box. Change this field to Reusable Box only when configuring packages for cluster pickings.
