Pallet Configuration List View
Pallet Configurations are used to identify how much physical space a pallet occupies, how many boxes make up a full pallet, and the stacking configuration of the boxes on the pallet. Pallet Configurations are assigned to Items to identify how much a full pallet of the item weighs. They are only used to store information, they do not have any functionality tied to them. The purpose of this page is to add, edit, remove, and activate/inactive these records.

Toolbar Icons | Description |
---|---|
Cancel | Cancels the current unsaved changes and returns the view from Edit mode to Read only mode. This toolbar icon is only displayed when the view is in edit mode. |
Delete | Deletes the selected record(s). When clicked, users will be prompted with: "Are you sure you want to delete the selected records?". Click "OK" to confirm, or "Cancel" to return without deleting. WARNING: Records cannot be recovered once they are deleted! |
Edit | Puts the list view in edit mode allowing all editable fields to be modified at one time. To get out of edit mode you must either Cancel or Save your changes. |
Excel | Clicking the Excel toolbar icon exports the current contents of the grid to an Excel file that is automatically downloaded. The contents that export are only those currently visible. If the grid is filtered, only the filtered contents will be exported. |
Favorites | Clicking on the star icon when it is an outline, adds the page to the 'My Shortcuts' tab and fills in the star. Clicking on the star icon when it is filled in (solid color), removes the page from the 'My Shortcuts' tab and returns the icon to an outline. Users must log out and back in before the pages will be visible in the 'My Shortcuts' tab. |
Grid Layout | Opens the Saved Grid Layout menu that allows the user to select another saved layout, create a new layout, save changes to a layout, or assign a saved layout as the default for the page. Once changes are made to a grid, such as columns are added or removed, the user can click the Saved Grid Layout icon and save the changes to the grid layout and name the new layout. The new layout can also be set as the default, instead of the System View. This is useful for creating specific views to separate master files or transaction types (i.e. Invoice specific vs. Credit Memo specific). The bolded view is the default view, which will determine the view will automatically display in when opened. |
Help | Opens the online WIKI help page for the current page. This icon is only visible on pages that are documented in the online help. |
New | Inserts blank lines that allow adding multiple new records. |
Save | Saves all changes. |
Fields | Description |
Checkbox | Used to select one or more records. |
Additional Boxes | A text box to enter the quantity of additional boxes for the Pallet Configuration, to be added or removed, to compute the total number of boxes for the Pallet Configuration. For example, to configure a Pallet Configuration of 100 boxes, made up of 5 full layers containing 19 boxes each (95 Boxes), the number of Additional Boxes would be 5 and would indicate a 6th layer with only 5 boxes. This defaults to 0 for new records and is not required to be changed. This field is always editable and must be a whole, positive or negative number. This field is part of the 'Total Boxes per Pallet' calculation is calculate as (([Boxes Per Layer] * [Layers Per Pallet]) + [Additional Boxes]). These fields are not required and are informational only, they do not drive any system functionality. There is no logic to prevent a Pallet Configuration from having a negative number of 'Total Boxes per Pallet'. The Pallet Configuration is used as a short description and unique identifier.

Boxes Per Layer | A text box to enter the quantity of boxes for each full layer. For example, to configure a Pallet Configuration of 100 boxes, made up of 5 full layers containing 19 boxes each (95 Boxes) and 5 Additional Boxes, the 'Box Per Layer' would be 19.This defaults to 0 for new records and is not required to be changed. This field is always editable and must be a whole, positive number in order to be updated. This field is part of the 'Total Boxes per Pallet' calculation is calculate as (([Boxes Per Layer] * [Layers Per Pallet]) + [Additional Boxes]). These fields are not required and are informational only, they do not drive any system functionality. There is no logic to prevent a Pallet Configuration from having a negative number of 'Total Boxes per Pallet'. Linked Database Field: ERPx_IMPalletConfiguration.BoxesPerLayer |
Cubes Per Box | A text box to manually enter the Cubes per box. This defaults to 0 for new records and is not required to be changed. This field is always editable and must be a positive number in order to be updated. If not, it will be updated to 1.00 on Save. This is a manually entered value. It is not calculated from Height, Depth, and Width values. This is not required and is informational only, it does not drive any system functionality. Linked Database Field: ERPx_IMPalletConfiguration.CubesPerBox |
Depth | A text box to enter the 'Depth' of a full pallet for the Pallet Configuration. This defaults to 0.00 for new records and is not required to be changed. It is always editable and can be changed to any number value >=0.00. If not, the message "Depth must be greater than or equal to 0.00" will be displayed on Save. This field is part of the three fields (Height, Depth, and Width) that identify the physical volume of the pallet. These fields are not required and are informational only, they do not drive any system functionality. There are no units of measure to specify for Height, Depth, and Width. They are typically entered in "Inches" but can be any value. Linked Database Field: ERPx_IMPalletConfiguration.Depth |
Height | A text box to enter the 'Height' of a full pallet for the Pallet Configuration. This defaults to 0.00 for new records and is not required to be changed. It is always editable and can be changed to any number value >=0.00. If not, the message "Height must be greater than or equal to 0.00" will be displayed on Save.

Inactive | A Yes/No field used to identify if the record is Inactive. If set to 'Yes' then the record is "Inactive" and will not be included in look-ups to assign to Items. If set to 'No' then the record is "Active" and can be freely used. Linked Database Field: ERPx_IMPalletConfiguration.IsInactive |
Layers Per Pallet | A text box to enter the quantity of full layers for each Pallet Configuration. For example, to configure a Pallet Configuration of 100 boxes, made up of 5 full layers containing 19 boxes each (95 Boxes) and 5 Additional Boxes, the 'Layers Per Pallet' would be 5.This defaults to 0 for new records and is not required to be changed. This field is always editable and must be a whole, positive number in order to be updated. This field is part of the 'Total Boxes per Pallet' calculation is calculate as (([Boxes Per Layer] * [Layers Per Pallet]) + [Additional Boxes]). These fields are not required and are informational only, they do not drive any system functionality.

Pallet Configuration | A text box to enter the unique identifier of the Pallet Configuration record. This defaults to blank for new records and is required. If not assigned, the message "Please enter a valid Pallet Configuration description." will be displayed on Save. This value must be unique. If not, the message "Duplicate Pallet Configurations are not allowed." will be displayed on Save. This field is always editable and must be <= 150 characters. The Pallet Configuration is used as a short description and unique identifier. Linked Database Field: ERPx_IMPalletConfiguration.PalletConfigurationDescription |
Pallet Tare | A text box to enter the typical 'Tare' weight of pallet. This defaults to 0.00 for new records and is not required to be changed. It is always editable and can be changed to any number value >=0.00. If not, the message "Pallet Tare must be greater than or equal to 0.00" will be displayed on Save. This field is part of the 'Gross Pallet Weight' calculation for each Item. An Items 'Gross Pallet Weight' = (([Items Shipping Weight] * [Total Boxes Per Pallet]) + [Pallet Tare]). The 'Pallet Tare' and 'Gross Pallet Weight' fields are not required and are informational only, they do not drive any system functionality. An Items 'Gross Pallet Weight' will be negative if the 'Total Boxes Per Pallet' is negative Linked Database Field: ERPx_IMPalletConfiguration.PalletTare |
Total Boxes Per Pallet | A calculated field to show the number of boxes for each full pallet. For example, a 'Pallet Configuration' made up of 5 full layers containing 19 boxes each (95 Boxes) and 5 Additional Boxes, would have 100 'Total Boxes Per Pallet'. This defaults to 0 for new records and is calculated on Save. Because this is a calculated field, it is never editable. 'Total Boxes per Pallet' = (([Boxes Per Layer] * [Layers Per Pallet]) + [Additional Boxes]). These fields are not required and are informational only, they do not drive any system functionality. There is no logic to prevent a Pallet Configuration from having a negative number of 'Total Boxes per Pallet'. Linked Database Field: ERPx_IMPalletConfiguration.TotalBoxesPerPallet |
Total Cubes Per Pallet | A calculated field to show the number of "Cubes" for each full pallet. This defaults to 0 for new records and is calculated on Save. Because this is a calculated field, it is never editable. 'Total Cubes Per Pallet' = ([Cubes Per Box] * [Total Boxes Per Pallet]).
