When you are adding a new step to a Route Status List, there are a number of status types available as part of the Clever Shipment Management application.
When creating the Route Status List the following options will be available to select from.
** When processing multiple Routes from the Shipment Management Route List at the same time, please note that you will not be able to download documents produced due to Client restrictions. The documents will need to be printed using Clever Printer Selections
