Shipment Management
Copy Shipment
Creating a shipment copy enables you to quickly create a shipment based on information already defined in an existing shipment or shipment template.
Note: The shipment created using the Copy Shipment action is not a complete copy of the selected shipment. Based on the (reduced) set of data elements that are copied, there are various actions and processes that are not supported when working with a copied version of a shipment. For example, the Copy Shipment action creates a copy that does not contain any related order movements. Any actions or processes that rely on the existence of related order movements will not work on a shipment copy.
Copying from a shipment template builds a new shipment with specific information copied from the template and pre-populated on the new shipment pages.
- Search for a shipment or shipment template.
- Select the shipment or shipment template on the search results page. You can specify shipment templates on the General tab of the finder.
- From the Buy Shipments results page, select Actions > Shipment Management > Utilities > Copy Shipment.
- Fill in all required fields and then click Finished.
Note: When a template is copied, the Template option is automatically cleared.
