Pathway: Operations > Manifest Processing > Manifest Consolidation
Manifest Consolidation is the process of combining waste material into one manifest for transport to an offsite location where it will be destroyed. This article details the process once an item has reached its final destination.
Work Status: Shipped - Completed
A batch can be updated to 'Shipping Completed/Received at Destination' once it has been received at the next location. To locate a batch in a shipped status, load the Manifest Consolidation screen using the 'Shipped' Status filter.
- Select the Transfer Work Order of the batch that was received at the destination.
- In the Work Order, update the Work Status to 'Shipping Completed/Received at Destination.'
Attach the Certificate of Destruction
From the Attachments tab, the Certificate of Destruction can be uploaded and saved to the transfer work order. However, if the disposal location has a signature uploaded in Setup > Operations > Disposal/Ship Location, a Certificate of Destruction does not need to be attached.
Certificate of Destruction vs Uploaded Signature
Enter Receipt Date and Destruction Date
Select the Completion tab and enter a Transfer Receipt Date and Destruction Date. If these fields are not populated, the transfer information will not display on the printed Manifest. In addition, a Destruction Date is required to post the work order.
Post Work Order
Once the transfer work order is in a 'Shipping Completed/Received at Destination' status, and the Transfer Receipt Date and Destruction Date fields have been populated, the Posting Status for the work order can be changed to 'Posted.' This will also update the batch's status in the Manifest Consolidation screen to 'Posted.'
If the batch included items that will be transferred to another location for destruction, once posted, a new batch is created for the transfer items.
Additional Transfers
Once a transfer work order is posted, any item that is still in transit to its final destination for destruction will be added to an Open batch in Manifest Consolidation. The original work order associated with items included in another transfer batch will be updated to display the corresponding transfer batch ID in the Consolidation section of the Labels tab.
To view the open batches, update the Manifest Consolidation screen status to 'Open.' Continue with the same process as before until all items have reached their final destination.
