Opening a shipping dock

Opening a dock and assigning a carrier to the dock creates a shipping master record. After the carrier is loaded and departs, you can release the carrier and log another carrier into the dock.

  1. From the RF Main Menu, select Shipping.
  2. Select Carrier Arr./Dep.
  3. Scan or specify the Dock ID. After a dock ID has been entered, the default values set up on the TWL Outbound-Shipping-Dock Master record are displayed in Dock Information.
  4. When the carrier is ready to depart, specify the carrier ID that is picking up packages for shipment.
  5. Specify a trailer ID, if required.
  6. Specify a route ID for this carrier, or press Enter through this field.
  7. Press Enter. The carrier is logged into the dock and you can begin shipping packages.
