Packaging Assignment Packaging Assignment is the process of assigning products to boxes which will help in identifying the product and the quantity of the product in a box. For example, there are 3 numbers for product A and 1 number for product B. You can package these products by assigning 1 number of product A to Box 1 and 2 numbers of product A and 1 number of product B to Box 2.
The Package Assignment option allows you to assign products to boxes, view details of each package, delete packages, and reassign packages.
Note: The Package Assignment is not a default option in SphereWMS. It will be provided only if you have requested it.
