Introduction to Shipping Mark Management

When purchasing goods, the warehouse inbound order typically requires inputting boxing information. This information is used to generate shipping marks and streamline box-level receiving at the warehouse.


💡 What is Shipping Mark?

📦Shipping Mark is a unique label affixed to the exterior of a box for identification and tracking of goods. It typically includes key information such as:

  • Product details: SKU name, specifications, quantity
  • Logistics details: Weight, dimensions
  • Marking: Box number
     

👉Purchase Workflow: Create purchase order --->> Add boxing information--->> Send the boxing information & shipping mark to the supplier--->> Supplier packs and boxes the items --->> Ship to the freight forwarder --->> Freight forwarder ships to your warehouse / third party warehouse
