    2. Specify the number of boxes to ship in the appropriate box. This will determine how many box labels to print, and how many tracking numbers to enter (among other things).

    3. Select whether you want to specify the cost/weight per package. If you DO want to enter these, then if you said 3 boxes you will enter three sets of tracking numbers, freight charges, etc.

  8. Click the Next button. Your screen should look similar to this:

  9. Enter data into the following categories (highlighted in red):

    1. Quantity Shipped - Enter units to be shipped. Total quantities ordered, backordered, and previously shipped are shown.

    2. Shipping Date - Enter the shipping date or select a date from the calendar using the Calendar button.

    3. Shipping Method - Select the Shipping Method from the pull-down list (this will default to the ship method selected at order entry).

    4. Tracking Number - Enter the Shipper's Tracking Number assigned to this shipment.

    5. Weight - Enter the total weight of this shipment in pounds.

    6. Freight Charges - Enter the total freight charges for this shipment. This amount will be added to the order when invoiced.

    7. Order Is Complete - If you are doing a PARTIAL shipment, be sure to UNCHECK this box. The default mode is checked -- assuming a complete shipment. If you leave this unchecked, you cannot close the order until you come back into shipments and check this box (whether actually shipping something or not).

  10. Note that you may already have a quantity to ship entered. This is because there is sufficient inventory on-hand to fill this order. If you only have 10 on-hand and you need to ship 50, it will pre-enter a 10 into the ship quantity field. You can, of course, override the quantity. You can also see how many were shipped previously (if any) and how many still need to be shipped (the backorder quantity).
  11. To save your entries, click the Save button.

  12. To return to the previous screen without saving the changes, click the Back button.
