Ocean Package Type Maintenance

Overview |
The Ocean Package Type Maintenance database maintains the types of ocean packages included in shipments. You can use this maintenance to define packages for LCL shipments (e.g., box, package, roll, and sack) and FCL shipments (e.g., container 20, container 40, and isotank 20). Note: You can do a lookup to the Package Type maintenance table from the Pack Type field on the Packages screen. |
