Shippers

    Shippers


    Article summary

    Shippers are bundles of parts that move through the shipping and invoicing process together.

    Ultimately, the parts in a Shipper get their own Packing Slip and Bill of Lading, if needed. They are then packaged together and shipped out or picked up together.

    Moving parts on a Work Order into Shipping creates a Shipper for those parts. See Create a Packing Slip.

    The Shipper screen has a "Ready to Ship" option arranged similar to Invoicing, but when a single invoice is made across multiple Shippers, the "Move Parts" screen will show a separate Quantity field for each Shipper.

    Once a Shipper is created, use the Shipping Dashboard to move parts!

    If you use the "Move Multiple Parts" function on the Work Order screen, you risk losing the ability to complete your Packing Slip or Bill of Lading. You can prevent this by only moving parts on the Shipping Dashboard once they enter the Shipping Node.

    When Parts are in Shipping and you need to transfer them, select the box next to the part number, scroll down and choose "Move Multiple Parts".
