Shipping a sales order with cartons

Use these instructions to ship a sales order with cartons that were assigned through the cartonization process. Before you can ship an order, you must add the total freight amount for the order from the Cartonization Center.

If products from multiple orders are combined in cartons, you must ship each order separately. You can add the freight charges to one order, or split the charges between the combined orders.

If the Shipping Confirmation option is selected on a warehouse record, you are required to ship the cartons before you can ship a sales order. If another user has grant authority status for the authorization point, Not All Cartons Confirmed For Shipment, they can permit you to override this requirement.

If you know the number of the order to ship, you can use the Quick Ship feature. Click the Detail button to access the Addon section on the Header tab.

  1. Select Sales > Entry > Shipping Feedback.
  2. Search for the order, and then click the right arrow to open the record.
