Here are some additional details about packing items in StarShip.
Line items can be packed using learned or created packaging scenarios
(added or modified in Maintain Inventory).
If you've shipped any of the items before, StarShip retrieves packaging
scenarios and automatically packs those items into first level packaging
(boxes, cartons, etc). By default, auto-packing based on packaging scenarios
is not enabled. You can enable this setting in Setup > Preferences
under Shipment Processing; check the option, "Automatically pack
items based on packaging scenarios." Control how items are packed
using the related Auto Pack Preference setting below it.
Note: StarShip supports mixed items in one box. However, StarShip can only
learn packaging scenarios for future shipments when you have one type
of item in one package. The auto-learning of packaging scenarios is optional
and can be disabled.
Loose items imported from the Amazon Order can be packed automatically into a default box. StarShip will pack loose items into default packaging based on the Preferences setting, "When importing orders, pack all loose items into a default package." This is the default setting; if you want to change this default, uncheck this setting in Parcel or Freight Preferences setup under Shipment Processing. Note that this setting is worded differently for Freight Preferences because it takes pallets into account.
If you add items from StarShip inventory, these can be automatically packed into the first, currently selected, or a new default box. They can also be left loose. This is based on the Preferences setting, "When adding items from StarShip inventory, place loose items in ..." The default setting is "first package".
Items can be packed using the Shipping Assistant, if it is enabled in Preferences setup, either manually or automatically (based on learned packaging scenarios).
