IEM Transport and Deliveries

Understand Container functionality

Containers are the basis for Transport and Deliveries. You can define as many Container Types as you need. You can link a Container Type to an Item to track the inventory of containers. Containers can be created and filled during picking or after picking. From the container you can create Transport Orders or link to existing Transport Orders. You can track the status of container from Open to Closed to Loaded.
