Shipment orders come in a variety of shapes and sizes, with different operational requirements and behaviors, so creating custom shipment order types is often necessary. This document will guide you through the simple process of creating a shipment order type in Logiwa.
Step-by-Step Guide
To begin, navigate to the Data Setup screen.
Select Shipment Order Type from the left sidebar.
Click the Create New SO Type button.
You can Update or Delete an existing shipment order type from the same screen.
In the Create New SO Type sidebar, enter a name for the shipment order type you want to create.
Enable or disable the following toggles (descriptions below the image).
Parameter | Description |
Allow Order Being In Multiple Locations or LPNs | Allows selected items of shipment orders of this type into multiple locations and LPNs instead of putting them into a single location. |
Allow Shipment Without Label | Allows shipping shipment orders of this type without needing to print a shipping label. |
Create Back Order | When enabled, back orders will be created automatically when jobs are created. If you're not sure if this should be enabled or disabled for your account, read here to learn more. |
Enable Partial Order Packing | When enabled, packers will be able to partially pack the order. When disabled, packers will not be able to pack the order if the products in the order are not completely picked. |
Allow Partial Shipment | When enabled, users can partially ship packages. Orders that are handled partially will display with a P (hover for Partial) next to the Status.
Please note that the system will show the status farthest along in the outbound process for a partial order.
For example, an order with partial allocation and partial shipment will show the order status as Shipped (P), while one with partial allocation and partial picking will show Ready To Pack (P) |
Allow Lot Number Swap On Picking | When enabled, permits users to scan a different lot number than those in the shipment order during the picking process. |
Auto Create Loading Task After Unloading | When enabled, after unloading, the system will automatically create a loading task for the given order. |
Allow LP Swap On Picking | When enabled, permits users to scan a different LP number than those in the shipment order during the picking process. |
Allow Expiry Date Swap On Picking | When enabled, permits users to scan a different expiration date than those in the shipment order during the picking process. |
Allow Production Date Swap On Picking | When enabled, permits users to scan a different production date than those in the shipment order during the picking process. |
Click Save to register your new shipment order type.
Once the SO type is saved, you will be able to see it on the list of available shipment order types.
