What is packaging consumption?

Packaging Consumption is an application where booking for Volvo Packaging is automatically generated based on what was confirmed in the Automatic Transport Booking Request (Auto TBR).

When an Auto TBR is confirmed, packaging details of the confirmed booking is generating a Packaging Consumption Request (PCR) that is displayed in the Packaging Consumption app. The packaging details is based on the connected packaging instruction in PackIT.

The purpose of the Packaging Consumption application is to enable for Suppliers to update or delete the PCR before it is sent from ShipIT to the LES application.

In order to see and use the Packaging Consumption app, you need to have MATERIAL SUPPLIER PMR role assigned to your ShipIT User ID. Please create a ticket as picture below:

When opening a PCR in packaging consumption you can.

1. Add/remove some packaging material.
2. Change quantity

Note that Packaging Consumption Requests that have been automatically generated can be edited or updated until 10:00 PM local time at the day of pick up. After this time, all PCRs for that specific day will be automatically sent to the LES system.

For more information on how to use the application, please see the Training Material section of ShipIT where we have a PDF manual & video guide.
