Scan Packages into Receptacles

Some shipment consolidators prefer to perform piece-to-sack mapping of packages to receptacles using a barcode scanner rather than the GSS Default Shipment or Closed Shipment pages.

On the Scan Only page:

1. Scan a receptacle label's barcode.  The Receptacle ID appears in the Receptacle section of the Scan Only page.
2. Begin scanning package barcodes to map them to the receptacle.  
   • To indicate a successful scan, GSS provides a positive "beep" sound and prints a package label.  (Packages that have been previously labeled can be scanned and mapped, but GSS does not print another label.)
   • To indicate an unsuccessful scan, GSS provides a negative "beep" sound and displays an error message to assist you with troubleshooting.
3. Continue scanning packages until you wish to change receptacles.
4. Scan another receptacle label.  GSS maps any packages you subsequently scan to this new receptacle.
5. When you have mapped all of the packages to the appropriate receptacles, return to the Default Shipment to close the receptacles.
