Shipping allocation

Shipping allocation

This module makes it possible to associate products with storage locations. The following elements can be managed:

  • Storage locations (Allocation). Example: pallet 1, locker B.

  • Location types (Allocation type). Example: pallet, locker.

  • Assigning products to locations

This feature is used in the shipping process which, during certain operations, will automatically remove products from the locations.

Allocation specifics

When the product has already been shipped or if it is in loading within the shipment, the allocation is not available for use. Multi-selection is not available when both non-allocatable and allocatable cases are selected. The “Locked” column indicates this aspect.

Shipping a work order

When a shipment is closed, the allocated products are automatically removed.
