Packaging is creating a kit, then storing the created kit as stock, ie. create the package and Jim2 understands that the individual components have now been locked away, unavailable for another job. This means that Jim2 knows there are packaged kits on hand for sale.
Some letters in the field names within the header are underlined, eg. Status. Using Alt+ the underlined letter will jump to the field beside that heading. |
The pack type and the default content for the packaging is set up and maintained via the stock record.
A second packaging process is run to indicate that the building process has taken place. Jim2 will then manage serialised identification on individual packages or batch numbers on batch packaging.
The packaging process becomes part of the workflow, where each packaging session can be monitored through defined status milestones.
At the end of the packaging process, the quantity of packaged kits will be available as stock on hand.
Because a package locks the stock, unpackage the package before the stock will be released. Unpack the package also, if a stock adjustment needs to be performed. |
Packaging is not compatible with Advanced Warehouse |
