Warehouse Environments
The Aptean Pack and Ship solution can be utilized in warehouse environments that employ varying levels of inventory control. In warehouse environments, shipments are not posted directly from source documents such as sales or transfer orders, but rather warehouse shipments, which contain the contents of one or more source document.
There are two ways in which packages can be created from a warehouse shipment:
- Warehouse Packaging: Similar to the Sales Packaging functionality that is used to create packages from sales orders.
- Pack Scanning: A warehouse-specific feature in which packages can be created via barcode scanning. This can significantly expedite the data entry process.
