Other existing Package Types are still available and can be used as before (including package types created for internal logistics or synchronized from other 3rd party connector apps). Only Package Types from the same Shipping Agent can be used for the same shipment.

When the Warehouse Shipment is posted a new "Transport OrderConsignment" is automatically created, bookedprepared, and printed in the ShipIT 365 LogTrade Connect App when:

  • A Package Type associated to ShipIT 365 LogTrade is assigned to a License Plate in the Packing process
  • The Warehouse Shipment includes unhandled License Plates (still not transferred to ShipIT 365)LogTrade)


License Plate No. added to Packages on Consigment

Error handling
Booking Preparing and printing the Transport Order Consignment may fail in ShipIT 365 LogTrade when i.e. rates for specific customers are missing. Generally, this is something to be solved in the ShipIT 365 LogTrade Connect setup.
Errors will prevent the Warehouse Shipment from being posted as well.

When setup issues have been solved, posting can be restarted from Mobile Device and a new Transport Order Consignment is created or you must manually open the Transport Order Consignment in Business Central and retry Book Prepare and Print.
