Container types sequence and transport accessories lists and sequences

Objectives

The goal of this guide is to provide a view of the new development about container types sequence & transport accessories lists and sequences.

Container Type

Container type definition

Every container type has now a sequence that has to be defined. This sequence will influence how container types are displayed (their order) on the operations in PDT select buttons of the containers.

To sort the operation, the system fetches the alternative containers defined for the processing container in question. After that, he calculates the best fit (which will always appear first) based on the quantities entered and sorts the rest based on the sequence field. In case of sorting operation the system does not calculate the best fit, it just sort the container types based on sequence.

Transport Accessories Lists

To the Transport Accessories Lists was also added a sequence field in order to sort the transport accessories in PDT select buttons. But, in this case was also added a new Boolean field called Default value which must be unique per list/warehouse. In other words, on PDT selection of the Transport Accessories, that will be sorted by default value plus the sequence.
