This can be used to alter the outgoing Bulk Factor to be used when addressing to upcoming operation destinations.
This adjustment can be made when some operations make the hanging product more bulky. A typical example is mounting two sides together, which afterwards often takes more place than two separate sides hanging straight down.
Note that an original Bulk Factor is set per Article, which is used until any operation sets a New Bulk Factor. Which in turn is used until it is altered via a later operation.
The Bulk Factor tells us how much space/rail length the hanging article and its carrier takes in reference to the "normal bulk"/bulk 1.0 .
Bulk 1.0 can be determined either by the space of an empty carrier, or by the space of the smallest product and its carrier. In the case of the latter, the rail load limits to empty carrier storage should be tweaked a bit to reflect that empty carriers do not use a full bulk 1.0 .
