Sales Inventory Part packed into multiple packages

Hi @CedJuliaH ,

Just an idea, as per your example office chair is a single configured part and which will be dispatched in the 3 sperate packages. So, try to connect the package instruction document ( This clearly instruct how the part need to be packed) to a sales part and use object connection transformation to automatically flow this document to customer order line & shipment lines. Also, enable Approve before Delivery  for the shipment type, such that someone need to approve the shipment confirming that it is packed according to attached package instruction.

in the Packing Instruction, I can’t add 3 separate packages as the Packing Instruction automatically assigns a “parent”, if you don’t connect a sub-handling unit.  This then looks as if one is packed inside the other which isn’t the case, I would have 3 individual packages?

So in the case of the chair, this packing instruction would look like:

• BOX
  • LEG PACK
  • FITTINGS

I need it to be:

• BOX
• LEG PACK
• FITTINGS

Hi @CedJuliaH ,

I mean the document which has the packing instruction not actually the packing instruction functionality in IFS.  IFS packing instruction is used to pack a single part but here you need to pack a single part into 3 different package hence cant be used. We could have tried packing proposal if you had different part no for chair, base & arms.

@Novacura_jst is this the kind of requirement that is resolved with the ‘shipment relevant parts’ concept?

We have the same challenge at a customer, so any input would be appreciated! Our idea now is to create a modification to resolve this matter.
