Packaging Reference Distribution

When goods are picked and linked to a shipment, the packaging reference distribution is created or updated below the shipment line and is used when handling units are generated for a shipment line. This is applicable only for the shipment lines that are created for a sales schedule.

The distribution is created based on the outbound order line reference distribution. The following table describes these references:
