Handling Unit Transactions
This section includes these transactions:
Create Handling Unit
When you put inventory into a new container, such as a box, you can use the Create Handling Unit transaction to create a handling unit for that container to track the contents and location of the container.
Split Handling Unit
When you take items out of a container, you can add them to another container or designate them as loose inventory using the Split Handling Unit transaction.
Link Handling Unit
To add a container to a group of containers, you must link the container handling unit to the group handling unit using the Link Handling Unit transaction. For example, if you add a box to a pallet, you must link the box handling unit to the pallet handling unit.
Unlink Handling Unit
Use the Unlink Handling Unit transaction to remove a container from a container structure. For example, if you remove a box from a pallet, you must unlink the box handling unit to the pallet handling unit.
Close Handling Unit
When you remove all items from a container, you can use the Close Handling Unit transaction to close or delete the handling unit assigned to that container. If you keep the container, close the handling unit instead of deleting the handling unit, so you can re-use the handling unit in the future.
See Emptying a Container.
Handling Unit Inquiry
You can use the HU Inquiry transaction to view details about a container.
