Product Containerization

Product Containerization is used to group multiple Purchase Orders (POs) that will be shipped in the same container from the manufacturer. It ensures that all linked purchase orders in a shipment are tracked together. Upon approval, the system updates the shipped quantities in the respective POs per line item.

How to Create a Product Containerization

1. From the left sidebar, go to Imagine Worldwide > Product Containerization.
2. Click Add New Product Containerization to create a new record.
3. Fill in the following fields:

• Company – The Imagine company responsible for this shipment (e.g., Imagine Tanzania).
• Posting Date – The date when the containerization record is created (defaults to today’s date).
• Bill of Lading – Enter the Bill of Lading number issued by the shipping company.
• Purchase Orders – Table linking to the Purchase Orders being shipped (includes PO number, Supplier, Total Qty, and Grand Total).
• Purchase Order Items – Table containing individual product details.

Next: Click Get Items From Purchase Orders.
This auto-populates the PO Items table. You may update the Qty based on the shipped quantity per PO and item row.

On Approval

• The system links all selected purchase orders under the containerization record.
• Shipped quantities in the linked Purchase Orders are updated automatically.
• A Create Goods Receipt Note button is displayed, allowing you to record the receipt of goods directly from the Product Containerization.
