Finalise Packing Slips

---

This process is enabled if the SO Module Control option Use packing slips is selected. Use it to finalise packing slips when they have been generated and maintained.

Use this form as an additional control step before shipping orders and generating invoices. Before generating invoices using the Generate Invoice form, you can select an option to invoice finalised packing slips only.

You can also specify whether users can edit finalised packing slips before invoicing. Select this option to edit finalised packing slips using the Packing Slip Maintenance form, before invoicing. If you don't select this option, finalised packing slips become read-only and you cannot edit them.

Note: You don't need to finalise packing slips. You can also invoice unconfirmed packing slips.

You can finalise packing slips for any order line that has a status of On Packing Slip. You can run the process from the Packing Slip Maintenance form, or using the Process/Sales Orders menu.
