Enabling auto drop

Before setting up the auto drop rules, you must define the company, warehouse, and printer. These values are used by an auto drop script to start up the auto drop process for each company-warehouse-printer combination. Printers that are used for TWL functions must be previously set up in SA Printer Setup.

The Auto Drop Enable settings determine if the twlautodrop.start script spawns an auto drop process for the specified warehouse, enabling the process to look at orders. If not enabled, then only the auto drop rules set for Immediately Drop are processed. The auto drop script reads the 'Enable Auto Drop' records and starts a background process for each entry.
