Consolidation of
shipments is the process of combining many smaller
shipments from different-2 senders to reduce transport charges. The goods are transported in one container,
which allows for reducing the shipping price. These types of shipments are also
referred to as LCL – Less than Container Load.
We are
supporting fast-growing companies with at least 5-10k orders/month looking to
scale quickly! WorkSeer, a CEVA Logistics company, is a world leader in
fulfilment and logistics.
Order Shipping Consolidated is a method of shipping where a
consolidator combines individual LCL shipments from various shippers into one
full container shipment.
This article
presents a scenario where multiple orders are released to the warehouse in the
same automated release-to-warehouse periodic procedure. The orders will
automatically be consolidated into shipments, based on rules that are defined
as Multiple Order
Shipment Consolidation policies.
During the
scenario, you will create sets of sales orders and release each set to the
warehouse. You will then review the shipments that are created or updated
during shipment consolidation, based on the configured policies.
The scenario
that is described here assumes that you've already turned on the feature, done
the exercises in Configure shipment consolidation policies, and created the
policies and other records that are described there. Be sure to do those
exercises before you continue with this scenario.
Where one or
more sales lines must be by hand released to the warehouse from the Release to
warehouse page, and the system-defined shipment consolidation policy must be
overridden before the release. An override of the shipment consolidation policy
might be required if, for example, an order that isn't usually consolidated
with open shipments must be consolidated with open shipments.
During the
scenario, you will create a set of sales orders and then override the default shipment consolidation policy before
you release the orders to the warehouse.
