Planning a Delivery
You can plan a delivery once delivery lines have been assigned to the delivery. After you set the status of the delivery to planned, it is eligible for pick release. When you plan a delivery, Order Entry / Shipping:
- validates that at least one delivery line was assigned to the delivery,
- validates that the delivery is assigned to a departure,
- (if Weight/Volume Calculation is set to Automatic on the Shipping Parameters window) calculates and captures the estimated number and type of containers needed and issues a warning if the number of containers exceeds the container load capacity for the vehicle.
Prerequisites
