When you let Maconomy assign a quote or an order to a consignment, Maconomy will attempt to find a consignment with a consignment date as close to the delivery date of the quote, quote line, order, or order line as possible. - Identification of Existing, Adequate Consignments
First, Maconomy checks for existing, adequate consignments. - Determining Whether a New Consignment with an Earlier Packing Date Can Be Created
Maconomy first checks which consignment modes in the table part of the destination’s information card can be used for the automatic creation of a new consignment. - Information Update on the Registration
If the registration was assigned to a consignment, Maconomy updates the Delivery Mode, Delivery Terms, Carrier, Consignment Type, and Consignment No. fields on the order or quote in question with the information from the consignment.
