What is going to happen?
Pack & Ship will no longer be its own separate extension.
We have continuously improved the features based on your feedback and it has today grown into a solid product ready for the next step.
We are now ready to merge the existing Per-Tenant extension Pack & Ship into our main product Mobile WMS that you are already using today.
- The migration will include data and functionality
- After the migration, all existing functionality will be available
Why is this an advantage?
- It is no longer required to manually install and update a separate Per-Tenant extension to use Pack & Ship, you will only need Mobile MWS.
- In order to create new functionality around the License Plate data structure, we need the License Plate data structure in Mobile WMS
When is this going to happen?
- We expect to deliver the first version of Mobile WMS with Pack & Ship functionality in Q2 of 2023
- All information related to this migration will be announced on the Tasklet Yammer forum.
Will we be forced to migrate?
- No, It´s up to you when you are ready and want to migrate, but new features related to Pack & Ship functionality will only be released as part of Mobile WMS.
What does this mean for existing customers?
You will need to migrate from the existing separate Pack & Ship extension to the new version of Mobile WMS.
