Pack & Dispatch | DynamxMFG

Dispatch is where good production goes wrong at the last moment
A job can run perfectly through production and still leave the building incorrectly. Wrong quantities, missing items, no record of what went where – dispatch errors are expensive, and they are the ones customers notice most.

Pick items, pack into containers, create the shipment – all in one place
When a sales order is ready for dispatch, it appears in the Pending tab of the Dispatch screen. Select the items, create a dispatch task, and hand it to the dispatch team. From the Advanced Interface, operators open the task, pick each item to transit, then pack items into the appropriate container type.

Once packing is complete, the shipment is created from the Unshipped Packing Items tab. Every item packed, every container used, and the shipment reference are all recorded against the original sales order – with a full audit trail back to the work order that produced the goods.

Configure boxes, crates, and pallets that nest the way your despatch team actually works
Packing Types are configured with a hierarchy level – boxes sit inside crates, crates sit on pallets, pallets go on to vehicles. The system enforces the hierarchy: a smaller container can be packed into a larger one, but not the other way around. No mis-packing. No items assigned to a container that cannot hold them.

Configure as many packing types as your operation needs – by weight class, product family, customer requirement, or courier specification. Each type is named and assigned a level number. The dispatch team selects the right container on the touch screen when packing.

When speed matters more than packing complexity, dispatch in one click
For straightforward despatch – where items go directly from production to the customer without complex packing – Auto Dispatch handles the whole process in a single action. Open the sales order or the dispatch pending tab, select the items, enter a dispatch reference, and confirm.
