You use this report to find another shipment with sufficient capacity for an existing package. Along with other selection criteria, you specify the weight and volume of the package to be packed and you also specify whether it can be split up among several handling units.

The system selects all those shipments with a remaining usable load that is equal to or greater than the value you specified in the selection criteria. You can select two different views on the list screen. The first view contains exact details on the percentage of the shipment capacity utilized in terms of weight and volume as well as general data, such as the transportation planning point, shipment type, and forwarding agent. The second view contains the deadline specifications. The functions are the same as those provided for transportation planning.

From this list you can branch directly to the selected shipment documents in order to execute changes in the shipments. For example, you can assign the delivery of the package still to be shipped to a particular shipment.

A planner still has one pallet with a volume of 2 cubic meters; he/she would like to assign this pallet to a shipment that has already been created, but is not yet fully scheduled. The planner therefore enters, in addition to the standard selection criteria (transportation planning point, shipment type, planned final date), the packaging material type Pallet and the volume to be packed. Also, he or she specifies the shipment route. Then the system generates an overview of all shipments that are planned for the route specified and still have capacity to include the pallet. The planner can choose a suitable shipment and assign the respective delivery to it.
