Documentation

Definition

Serves mainly for building layers.

You can use the rounding quantity to ensure that a layer is completely filled, in order, for example, to prevent possible damage in transit.

Use

The system checks that the rounding quantity is respected when it determines the packing status. In your packing status check profile, you enter whether a handling unit can be created despite falling short of the rounding quantity or not.

Procedure

Examples

If you want to pack a pallet with four boxes per layer, enter four as rounding quantity and specify in the packing status check profile that handling units that fall short of the rounding quantity are faulty. If there are not enough boxes to fill up a layer, the other boxes then remain unpacked.

This means that the pallet remains stackable and easier to handle throughout the shipping process.
