Product Warehouse Description Setup - Cartonization field descriptions

Fields are listed in alphabetic order within each section.

Cartonization

Minimum Cube Percent and Maximum Cube Percent

Specify the minimum and maximum fill requirements for a package. These values are the default values on Product Cartonization Package Setup records that are set up for the warehouse.

Multiple Orders Combined in Cartons When Same Ship To Location

Select this option to allow products from multiple orders to be combined in cartons if these conditions are met:

  • The cartons are being shipped to the same location.
  • Thee cartons are transported by the same carrier.
Package Dimensional Size Measured in Cubic

Select this option to include carton information on EDI 856 Advance Ship Notices that are sent to the customer through ION BODs.

Print Carton Information on Invoice Prints

Select a value to indicate what type of carton information to include on an invoice. You can include item-level or order-level information, or both or neither.

This setting only affects invoices that are generated in Print Format 4 to Infor Document Management's Output Management and third-party applications. It does not affect invoices that are output directly to a printer.

Process Warehouse Transfer Direct Orders Only When Using Auto

Select this option to limit automatic assignment of cartons to warehouse transfer direct orders. Automatic assignment of cartons only occurs when the pick tickets are printed through the Transfer Entry Print WT Report.

Cartonization processing for a warehouse transfer direct order is determined by the customer on the tied sales order. If the customer uses the warehouse default settings, then cartonization processing is based on the warehouse settings.

Shipping Confirmation

Select this option to require shipping confirmation before the sales order or transfer can be shipped. Shipping is confirmed when all products and cartons for an order or transfer were shipped.

Operators can override the shipping confirmation requirement when shipping an order or transfer, if granted authorization. You must set up the override capability in SA Authorization Point Setup.

Track Contents of Packages

Select this option to track the quantity of each product in each package. The information is displayed in the Cartonization Center and included in BODs and on documents such as pick tickets and invoices. If you do not select this option, only packages are tracked, not the detail of the packages.
