# Manage Shipping Facilities

## Overview

This operation is used to manage the Facilities that are available to be shipped to from a **Facility**.  

## Setup

No specific setup is required other than to meet the preconditions of the transaction.

## Preconditions

* The local **Facility** exists in the system.
* The remote **Facilities** exists in the system.

## Sequence of Steps

To manage the Facilities that can be shipped to from the current **Facility**, there is a button labeled *Manage* in the *Shipping* tab of the current Facility. Pressing the button opens a wizard where the data can be configured:

1. Add as many Facilities as desired in the left side panel.
2. Each added Facility should be configured on the right side panel by selecting the desired **Facility**. Read-only information will be displayed on the selected **Facility**:

    * **Description** - selected **Facility** description
    * **Type** - selected **Facility** Type
    * **Is Remote** - information on whether the **Facility** is located locally or if it is remote. A remote **Facility** represents another Critical Manufacturing instance.

3. Pressing *Update* will update the list of **Facilities** and return to the main screen.
