Pathway: Operations > Manifest Processing > Manifest Consolidation
Manifest Consolidation is the process of combining waste material into one manifest for transfer to a location where it will be destroyed. This article details the process users should follow to prepare open batches for shipping.
Prepare For Shipping
When a user has identified a truck is full and ready to ship, the status of the open batch must be updated to 'Ready to Ship.' A 'Ready to Ship' status stops the system from assigning additional items to the batch and creates a transfer work order.
Step 1. Edit Open Batch
- Select 'Open' from the Status filter to search for the Open batch. Apply additional filters as needed to limit what batches are returned. Then select Load.
- Right-click on the batch you would like to prepare for shipping and select Edit Batch. The Manifest Consolidation Batch popup editor will display.
- Enter a Source, Transporter, Destination and Ship Date into the batch editor and select Save. This will close the Manifest Consolidation Batch editor.
Step 2. Mark Ready to Ship
- After Edit Batch is complete, right click on the batch again and select 'Mark Ready to Ship.' Upon selection the batch will be updated and a transfer work order created.
Step 3. Print Documents for Driver
- Update the Manifest Consolidation screen's Status filter to 'Ready to Ship.'
- Right-click on the batch that is now in a "Ready to Ship" status and print the following documents for the driver:
- Print Manifest
- Print Shipping Report
