Business value

Use batch processing to perform container operations on large numbers of purchase order lines included within a voyage. Batch processing allows you to apply many operations at once without experiencing long delays or timeouts on the front end.

Feature details

This feature lets users add purchase order lines to new or existing shipping containers and then choose to apply the changes in batch mode, which allows the system to process the updates in the background. Note, however, that background processing won't activate when the transfer quantity is less than the total quantity of the related purchase order line.
