Hello, 

I am looking for a way to prevent our Logistics department from Delivering/Completing a shipment without approval. Currently, we have been experiencing issues with incomplete data being filled out by our shipping clerks. This is leading to post-shipment cleanup transactions. 

I’ve noticed in Shipment Type, there is an Approve before Delivery checkbox. The help seems to indicate that enabling this will require a shipment to be approved before Delivery can be made. Unfortunately, there is not additional detail on how this approval works. Has anyone used this feature before? If so, how is the approval setup? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

yes, on the shipment is an RMB  - Approve.  

When you click it, the flag in the header becomes unchecked, meaning “no longer requires approval”.

The idea is that access to the Approval function is restricted through security

DB Object = Shipment_API.Approve_Shipment
