3.2 Scan to Manifest
Using the Scan to Manifest function
The Scan2Manifest function allows the customer to scan their internal barcode into OmniParcel, provided they have supplied that information to OmniParcel at the time of consignment creation, and build a manifest for what they are sending.
Log on to OmniParcel using your login credentials.
Ensure all consignment data is uploaded into OmniParcel before proceeding.
Click Create -> Scan2Manifest
Click “New Session”
Enter a Session Name for your manifest. Please use the date as the reference followed by an identified relevant to you, e.g. 20230227_Retailer_Name and click Create.
Now that your session has been created, you can scan and build your manifest. Simply scan into the Scan Barcode box.
If a scan is successful, a green “Added to session” message will appear.
If a scan is unsuccessful, a red “Consignment not found” message will appear
If a connote has already been scanned into this session, a red “Already added to this session” message will appear.
If a connote has already been scanned on a previous session, a red “Already added to session” message will appear with the session that it was scanned into.
If you accidently scan a package but wish to un-scan this package as it is not being released to the courier today, you can click “delete” next to the connote you wish to remove. This will allow you to rescan the package into a different session. This can only be done before closing the session.
Once you have finished scanning all packages, you will need to close the session in order for the manifest to be created. This will allow for your data to be sent to your freight forwarder so that they can consolidate your freight. To close your session click “Review” -> “Close Session”
