Item - Package Definitions (whwmd4130m000)

Use this session to view, add, or change package definitions for the selected item.

In this session, you can link general-level package definitions, which are defined in the Package Definitions (whwmd4110m000) session, to the selected item. You can adjust the handling unit templates and, in case of fixed package definitions, the packaging levels, to create the item-level package definition for the selected item.

When you insert a record in this session, a package definition from the Package Definitions (whwmd4110m000) session is linked to an item to create a package definition for the item.

You cannot delete item-level package definitions if there is inventory present that is stored in the package definition for the item. In addition, the package definition levels and handling unit templates on item level must be deleted before a package definition by item can be deleted.
