	<GeneralSection><Paragraph>You can use handling units in multicompany warehouse transfers. If you transfer a handling unit by means of a multicompany warehouse transfer and the shipment is confirmed, SSA ERP copies the shipment's handling-unit structure to the ship-to company. In addition, SSA ERP copies the ship-from company's handling unit numbers to the ship-to company and generates the ship-to company's internal handling unit numbers by means of the ship-to company's <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/wmd/whwmd2100s000#whwmd200.ilmc" role="formfield">Internal Handling Unit Mask</GUIRef>.</Paragraph>

			<ListItem>A package definition that does not exist in the ship-to company is linked to a handling unit, the handling unit is not copied to the ship-to company.</ListItem>
			<ListItem>A packaging item that does not exist in the ship-to company is linked to the handling unit, the handling unit is copied to the ship-to company without a packaging item.</ListItem>
