Add Mandatory Values to One Package or Item

After you pack, use this procedure to add a missing value to a mandatory user-defined field for a specific package or item in the shipment.

For example, add package measurement information to communicate the dimensions of a carton or pallet. Active Orders uses this information to calculated package volume.

To search packages and items for missing user-defined fields values, see “Add Mandatory Field Values” on page 248.

To add mandatory values to one package or item

Important: All mandatory user-defined fields must be populated.

1	In the packing engine, in the Package(s) drop-down menu, click the package that you want to work with or that contains the item — for example, Carton 00001.

2	Do one of the following:

For package user-defined fields, click User-Defined Attributes for Package.

For item user-defined fields, select one or more line items in the package and click User-Defined Attributes for Pack List(s).

A dialog displays mandatory user-defined fields for the package or item.

For a date field, either click the calendar icon to select a month, day, and year, or type the date into the field. Your preferred Date format is in your company Profile.

Note: An administrator sets date validation rules.

3	Enter the information, then click Save. The system sets the specified values for the selected package or item(s) and displays a message.

4	To view or change the value later, reopen the dialog using these steps.
