    netweight and supplementary quantity unit

    I am wondering what the difference is between the net weight and the supplementary quantity. Is the net weight the primary unit declared by the member countries and is the supplementary quantity the secondary unit? 

    For example when I check the following trade flow I get this result:

    1
    Period
    Trade Flow
    Reporter
    Partner
    Code
    Trade Value
    NetWeight (kg)
    Quantity Unit
    Trade Quantity
    2004
    Import
    Ireland
    Canada
    440320
    $76,205
    368,014
    1
    N/A

    Does that mean that Ireland has just provided the imports netweight and no supplementary unit?
