 How to Define Order Contents?

You define the contents of orders in terms of either ship

units or line items.

 How to Define Order Contents?

• Line items describe the goods on the

order. That is, you can define the order
in terms of specific packaged items.

• Ship units describe packaging

characteristics and optionally the goods
in each package.
– For example, you can define the order in
terms of pallets and then choose to
define what is on those pallets.

 When to Use Line Items and Ship Units?

If, at the time of entering the order you know:

• Only the kind of ship unit you will ship
– define your order with ship units
– optionally add information about the contents at a later
time
• Exactly what kind of goods will be shipped
– define your order with either:
— Line items directly or
— Ship units with ship unit line items
