The number of visible items of HU0 is one, because the user can see only container itself. HU1 consists of one pallet. A pallet is an external packaging item. The pallet holds two boxes of item A, and four boxes of item B. HU1 has six visible units, because the user can count the boxes on the pallet. To calculate the number of visible units, select a handling unit and select this command. Calculate Use this command to calculate the weight of the selected handling unit. For handling units with child handling units, the weight is calculated by adding the weights of the child handling units. Gross weight calculation also adds the weight of any packaging items. On the bottom level of the handling unit structure, where no child handling units exist, the weight is calculated based on the weights of the packaging items and the item weights specified in the Item - General (tcibd0101s000) session. Open Sets the handling unit status to Open. The Expected Order Lines (whinh3820m000) session starts and displays inbound order lines with the same Item that you have specified on the selected handling unit.
