Packing list


Packing list is created before shipment. Packing list details, the number of pieces per carton along with number of cartons and other required information.


There are 3 types of packing in ApparelConnect:


  1. Interim Packing (this is used before final packing and if there is not garment stock in warehouse)
  2. Final Packing (Garment Stock must be there in warehouse to create final packing. Garment stock can be created automatically based on ApparelConnect configuration when we click on Pack It!)
  3. Blister Based (This type of packing is used when a number of garments/garment set are packed in a blister and then a number of blisters are put in a carton)



The packing type has to be configured in company set up as per the packing type in any factory. The company configuration can be done as per below screen. So, packing type should be chosen carefully.

After choosing and saving Packing Type user can go and start making packing list.
