The definition includes the default warehouse from which you send the goods, the carrier who carries out the transport, and the related sold-to business partner.

Item In LN, the raw materials, subassemblies, finished products, and tools that can be purchased, stored, manufactured, sold, and so on. An item can also represent a set of items handled as one kit, or exist in multiple product variants.
