         <Paragraph>Packaging items
		  identified as reusable items in the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh/wmd/whwmd4105s000" role="session">Packaging Items (whwmd4105s000)</GUIRef> session are counted into and out of the warehouse per <Link href="/baanerp/tc/glossary/glossary#BusinePartne_tc" role="glossary">business</Link> partner. Two
		  quantities are counted: the 'In' quantity and the 'Out' quantity.</Paragraph>
         <Paragraph>For a ship-from
		  business partner, the initial 'In' quantity represents the number of packaging
		  items belonging to that business partner, existing in the warehouse. The 'Out'
		  quantity is first equal to zero. 'In' and 'Out' quantities are recorded per
		  ship-from business partner and item for each packaging item that belongs to a
		  specific ship-from business partner. The 'In' quantity tracks the number of
		  packaging items getting in the warehouse within the receipt process, for
		  example. The 'Out' quantity records the packaging items which are returned to
		  the ship-from business partner.</Paragraph>
         <Paragraph>For a ship-to business
		  partner, the initial 'Out' quantity represents the number of packaging items
		  belonging to your company (as a supplier), that exist at the ship-to business
		  partner's site. The 'In' quantity is first equal to zero. 'In' and 'Out'
		  quantities are recorded per customer and item for packaging items that belong
		  to your company as a supplier. Since these items are used to ship goods to that
		  specific customer, your company needs to track them outside the warehouse.
		  During the shipment process, the 'Out' quantity will be increased if packaging
		  items are shipped together with goods. The 'In' quantity will register the
		  number of packaging items incoming from the customer, for example within a
		  return order.</Paragraph>
         <Paragraph>When the ship-from
		  business partner is also a ship-to business partner, all packaging items are
		  recorded for that business partner: self-owned packaging items and those owned
		  by the business partner.</Paragraph>
         <Paragraph>The data in this
		  session are automatically updated by <GUIRef href="/baanerp/wh" role="package">Warehousing</GUIRef> during the receiving and
		  shipping processes. When packaging items are sent in bulk back to a supplier,
		  or conversely received from a customer, and are not processed through the
		  receiving or shipping sessions, this session is used as the means to update the
		  quantities.</Paragraph>
