Create Outbound Shipment Requests Using a Redwood Page

When integrating with an external execution system, certain situations arise that might require you to send shipment lines to the execution system outside of your normal integration schedule. For instance, an emergency order comes in for a high-priority customer, or you just received backordered stock and need to fulfill open orders immediately. In these instances, the Create Outbound Shipment Request page provides you the ability to manually specify the criteria you want to use for interfacing shipment lines with an external system. Now you can create these outbound shipment requests using a Redwood page.

You can access the New Outbound Shipment Request page from the Inventory Management work area. The task is available from the Shipments and Picks categories. Alternatively, you can navigate to the page by selecting the task from the quick actions.
