A new ACR only ‘Despatch Measurements’ configuration has been introduced with the below options:
- ‘By Consignment’ – This is the system default (and how the system currently works) where by weight/measurements are entered as a total
- ‘By Individual Carton’ – This option is to cater for Despatch Measurements to be entered by Individual Carton
- Picking Slips/Bulk Pick on RF Guns cannot be accessed if this configuration is True
- The Confirmation System within ACR and on the RF Guns cannot be accessed if this configuration is True
When the ‘By Individual Carton’ configuration is True, and a User tabs through to the Weight/Dimension fields, the following Screen will be displayed in where they can enter a Pallet and Carton Count with weight/dimensions for each one.
- Once the Despatch Status reaches ‘Ready for Manifest’ the above screen will become ‘display only’.
- This screen will not appear if the Carrier is set to ‘No Measurements’
The Summary on the Despatch Screen will show the combined Weight in the Weight field and the Cubic Volume in the Width field- as below:
Note:The Manifest and Electronic Despatch File will cater to these entries where the Carrier is set to ‘Despatch Pallets and Cartons’ and the site is configured for ‘By Individual Carton’.
Please contact the ACR Support Team if you would like the ‘Despatch Measurements’ configuration changed to the ‘By Individual Carton’ option.
