Carton Information

You can store detailed information about each carton on a shipment for tracking, carton charges, and the Advanced Ship Notice (ASN).

Carton information includes:

  • Serial numbers.

  • Weight information.

  • Scanning information.

  • Third-party or custom modifications for data collection and scanning.

  • Manual processing.

  • Carton recommendations.

  • Recommendations for packing.

  • Next numbers for label serial number.

  • Carton reorganization for changes.

The ASN enables the sender to describe the contents and configuration of a shipment. The ASN lists the contents of a shipment of goods, and information that is related to the shipment, such as:

  • Order information.

  • Product description.

  • Physical characteristics.

  • Type of packaging.

  • Carrier information.

  • Configuration of goods within the transportation equipment.

The system prints the bill of lading from shipment and carton detail with detail and summary carton information. Customers control the format for the bill of lading number, which uses next numbers and is not customer-specific.
