Clever Packing has been designed to be the step in between the standard processes of Picking the Items required for a Sales Order and Shipping them out to the Customer.

A Packing Orders can be created in one of two ways, either manually in Business Central or via the Clever Packing Portal.  

When creating a Packing Order via the Clever Packing Portal, a basic overview of the steps that should be taken is described below:

  • When processing a Pick for a Sales Order in Business Central, all Items must be picked into a Container.  Containers are part of our Clever WMS Containers.  Please refer to the documentation for more information.
  • Select the relevant Packing Station and Packing Operator
  • Enter the Container Number
  • The most suitable Packing for the Items within the Container will be suggested.  This can either be accepted or changed as required
  • Scan the Items Picked into the Package
  • Weigh the Package
  • Post the Packing Order
  • The Sales Order may then be automatically Shipped depending on the option selected in Clever Packing Setup.
  • In addition to the Shipment, any Delivery Documents may also be automatically printed based on the options selected in Clever Packing Setup
  • Also depending on the option selected in Clever Packing Setup, the Invoice may also be posted.
