Ship All Order Lines in One Shipment Set

What if you need to ship lines together, but don't need more than one shipment set?

Try it.

1. Add all your order lines.

2. Click Shipment Details.

3. In the Order Line Details area, notice that the Shipment Set attribute is empty.

4. On the General tab, set the Ship Lines Together attribute to Yes.

5. Notice that the Shipment Set attribute now contains Default.

   If you set Ship Lines Together to.

   Value	Description
   Yes	Ship the entire sales order in one shipment. For example, your customer orders a table and four chairs, and doesn't want to receive the table before receiving the chairs.
   No	Ship each order line separately when the order line is available for shipping instead of waiting until all lines are available. This setting might increase shipping costs for the entire sales order, but can reduce time to ship a single order line.

   Order Management will ship all lines in the Default shipment set.
