FYI
for those that use third party supplier to ship
the sequence is not quick a clear.
the invoice may come before or after the tracking info.
so have to account for going right from
in processing
to
shipped
if the tracking info get there first.
but not complete after delivered if the invoice has not been received.
unless you want to make the invoice clearing part of the accounting
reconcile process.

Quick ship will put the shipment into SHIPPED status. I think it's
better if we removed that part so that both quick-shipped and packed
orders are consistent and in the PACKED state. Plus we can then use the
scheduling screens in facility manager to schedule both quick shipped
and packed shipments.

The other 2 existing options are: Quick Ship in the Order Manager, and
the Packing screens in the Facility Manager (those may by default only
set the shipment to packed, which is really all those are meant for,
but you could change it to set it to shipped).
A Shipped status is tricky... Technically your business only usually
cares if it's packed (for financial and other reasons). It is only
technically "shipped" once the carrier has picked it up, and many
companies don't even track that.

Hi all
I can't figure how to get a shipment to change to SHIPMENT_SHIPPED.
what is the UI flow required to get it marked as shipped? I know it
can be changed manually in edit shipment.
Thanx
