Close Packing Container#

Overview#

After Opening a Packing Container, the user can close it, which will result in the printing of all the necessary labels for it.

Concept#

In order to close the Packing Container, the user should go to the Resource View, select the Packing Container, and enter the Close Packing Container wizard.

This wizard will show the information about the Packing Container and the items contained in it. When the user finishes the wizard it will close the Packing Container and print the various Labels meant for it.

  • This will call a service that changes the PackingState attribute of the Packing Container to Closed. However, if it was already Closed before the call, an error will be thrown.
  • Additionally, all the Labels resolved from the SMTMaterialPrintableDocumentContext Smart Table will be printed using the printer resolved from the PrinterTypePrintersContext Smart Table.
