Transport Order support in the Sync Shipment BOD

Sync Shipment BODs with a shipment type of TransportOrder are now supported. After a load is created with handling units in Infor LN, users can trigger the sending of the transport order through a new LN menu option, Publish Transport Order.

After this BOD is received and processed in Shipping, the transport order can be replaced or canceled. These are the valid values for transport order messages:
  • Original
  • Replace
  • Reminder
  • Cancellation

On the Shippers page, a load with the value of TransportOrder in the Type field is created with a status that reflects the status of the load. The only applicable task for a shipper with the Transport Order type is Publish ASN on the Tasks tab on the Shippers page. A new workflow is included in this release to support the ASN task.

Import Configurations and Export Configurations

The import and export of ship from and packaging data are supported by the Import Configurations page and Export Configurations page on the Configuration submenu. This functionality is useful for migrating data from the test environment to the production environment.
