Entering Dangerous-Goods-Relevant Data on the Handling Unit

Use

You use the Selection of Dangerous Goods Data for Packaging dialog to enter dangerous-goods-relevant data for packaging on the handling unit in the shipping document.

The Selection of Dangerous Goods Data for Packaging dialog box is called from the shipping document as a packaging material proposal for packing dangerous-goods-relevant document items in a handling unit. The handling unit with the entered dangerous-good-relevant data is then created. After that you can pack the document items in the created handling unit.

With the Selection of Dangerous Goods Data for Packaging dialog you can also assign exceptions to dangerous goods regulations for the handling unit (see also Assigning Exceptions to DG Regulations to the HU Header) or for the handling unit item (see also Assigning Exceptions to DG Regulations to the HU Item).

Note Note

If you want to use the mixed packing checks and packing checks on the handling unit, refer to the information in the Dangerous Goods Checks on Handling Units document (see also Dangerous Goods Checks on Handling Units). These checks are integrated in the handling unit process.

End of the note.
