How to Generate Cartons for Shipping

Prior to this step, you should have created and printed Pick Tickets for your sales orders.

If you have not created a Pick Ticket, learn how to do so by clicking on the button below:
Create Pick TIcket

If you have not printed a Pick Ticket, learn how to do so by clicking on the button below:
Print Pick Ticket

If you have already completed the two tasks above and are ready to generate cartons for shipping, then follow the instructions on this page.

How Cartons are Generated
Cartons are created based on the order quantity and the number of pieces that go into a carton. This second number, known as the Carton Quantity, is set for each style in the Reference Tables.
Here is an example -
One order has:
Style 1, order quantity is 54 and case quantity is 12.
Style 2, order quantity is 6 and case quantity is 12.
For style 1, you can make 4 cartons of quantity 12 each. That leaves 6 quantity remaining for style 1. The 6 remaining goes into its own carton, separate from the 4 already made. Let's call this separate carton: carton 5.
For style 2, you have quantity 6. Carton 5 can take 12 total and has 6 in it already from style 1.
The 6 of style 2 can still fit in Carton 5.
Therefore, for this order of two line items, Simparel will generate 5 Cartons when you click Generate Cartons.
