Multiple and Partial Shipments
In this scenario, your Customer has ordered several types of products, in various quantities.
You have prepared an Invoice with a list of Products ordered.
And you start shipping products as soon as they are ready, i.e. it takes several shipments to deliver all the ordered products.
You can
create a Packing Slip from the Invoice. When a shipment is ready for delivery, edit the Shipped Quantities for each Product included
in the Shipment, and print out the Packing Slip.
Tracking Previous Shipments:
Each Product in the Packing Slip includes a "Previously Shipped Quantity" field which keeps track of the number of items already shipped.
After the first shipment, whenever you update the Shipped Quantity of a Product in the Packing Slip, the Previously Shipped Quantity field is automatically incremented by the previous quantity shipped.
