Field Descriptions for Quick Ship (PS30)

This list describes every field on the Quick Ship folder:

  • Packing No. - a unique system generated number assigned to a Packing Session. The Packing Number must be Closed to be accessed by the Quick Ship folder.

  • The Shipping Address information from the first Sales Order entered into the Packing Session automatically displays in the following fields:
    • Name
    • Address 1
    • Address 2
    • City
    • Prov/State
    • Postal/Zip
    • Country
    • Telephone

    The Shipping Address information can be updated only when the 'Override Ship To Address' field in Company Control Initialization (CC00/Packing Station) is set to:

    • Yes - the Ship To Address information can be modified manually or using the query associated with the 'Name' field.
    • Select Only - the Ship To Address information can be modified using the query associated with the 'Name' field only. Manual updating of the Name and Address information is not permitted.
    • No - the Ship To Address cannot be modified for the Shipment.

    Note: When you click the query associated with the 'Name' field, the Ship To Address Selection window opens. The ship to's include only the ship to's from the sales order on the pack contained in the shipment, and not the alternate ship to's from Maintain Ship-to Addresses (SU14) for the customer on the order. Double click on a ship to line and the new ship to address information automatically displays.
