Use the Serialized Logistics mobile application to ship or return products.

You can do internal shipping or internal return to another warehouse of your company or do external shipping to a client.

Shipping Type	Internal or External?	Return Possible?	Description
By batch	Internal	No	You can scan one pack to get a list of all the packs that belong to the same batch and ship them together. Only applicable if your warehouse is involved in manufacturing.
By stock transfer ID	Internal	Yes*	You can group products with a stock transfer ID (STID) and ship or return them together. By default, internal returns are not allowed.
By purchase order ID	External	No	You can create a transfer or execute an order. Both the transfer and the order take a purchase order ID (POID). (Transfers only) When picking is enforced before shipping, you can only confirm the picked items and submit them for shipping.

*When internal returns are allowed.

Reporting the Shipping Event to an External System

The shipping event is reported to the applicable external system through the channel configured for the warehouse (BPOM, SFDA RSD, or SAP ICH) or through the channel configured for the supplier (Tatmeen UAE or SAP ICH).

Reporting to an external system is driven by your business use case. Consult your use case description and identify the type of shipping event that must be reported to the external system. For more information, see Serialized Logistics Workflows.

If the channel setting is not configured, the shipping event is recorded in Movilitas.Cloud only.

Verification against the NMVS (FMD Europe)

If an Arvato regulatory channel is set and the FMD verification on outbound checkbox is selected for the warehouse, each scanned pack is verified against the NMVS while shipping to a client.

If the item is valid (commissioned) but there is a warning from the NMVS, the application displays the warning message from the NMVS also. The warning does not block you from shipping the item.
If the pack is decommissioned or there is an issue with the pack, the pack is not added to the list in the mobile application and that pack cannot be shipped.

The shipping event is not reported to the NMVS because it is a business-related activity not connected to the regulations.

Exporting Packs to a Non-FMD Country with Report to the NMVS (FMD Europe)

When the following conditions are met, the status of the items is set to Exported in the NMVS after submitting the items for shipping:

An Arvato regulatory channel is set for the warehouse.
The FMD verification on outbound checkbox is selected for the warehouse.
The client is not in an FMD country (outside EU).

The shipping event is not reported to the NMVS because it is a business-related activity not connected to the regulations.

Commissioning while Shipping

For manufacturer sites, it is possible to commission the items while shipping hence performing multiple actions at the same time. As a prerequisite, the items must be created in Movilitas.Cloud through serialization activities in the Serialized Manufacturing application. The serialization activity is label printing or registering items in Movilitas.Cloud over the Manufacturer V2 API.

The commissioning while shipping can be activated or deactivated at the warehouse level.
The setting does not bring extra UI functions for the user in the mobile application but Movilitas.Cloud executes additional tasks and reports in the background.

Auto-unpack during Shipping

If the items to be shipped are aggregated and the hierarchy is known in Movilitas.Cloud, the application can unpack them automatically while shipping them to a client, and a manual unpack action is not required from the user.

The feature applies to outbound external orders only.
The setting can be activated or deactivated at the warehouse level.
The scope of the unpack can be also extended to dissolve parent container(s) (SSCCs).
The setting does not bring extra UI functions for the user in the mobile application but Movilitas.Cloud executes additional tasks in the background. For more information on the unpacking logic, see Unpack Products in Serialized Logistics (Mobile).

Note: The procedures described below take the use case when the operator scans the items by using the camera of the mobile device.

For mobile devices with built-in scanners, the GUI buttons related to scanning, like Scan Item, may not be displayed and you need to press the physical button on the device to scan.
For devices with external (table) scanners, you can point the scanner to the barcode to scan and you can ignore the GUI buttons on the screen related to scanning.

The following table summarizes the system actions based on the business case or connection.

Business case/Connection	System Action
General	A transfer is created with the details in Movilitas.Cloud. You can check it by going to the Serialized Logistics application --> Transfers --> Outbound external --> Transfers page. Once an item is shipped, it is not in possession and it is not possible to perform an action on it until the item is received.
SAP ICH BPOM (Indonesia)	The commissioning event (manufacturers only) and the shipping event are reported to the applicable external system through the channel configured for the warehouse.
Shipping to Bahrain*	The system enables you to download the EPCIS 1.2 file and send the EPCIS 1.2 file to the supplier (MAH) by going to the Serialized Logistics application --> Transfers --> Outbound external --> Transfers page.
Shipping to the USA**	The system enables you to download the EPCIS 1.2 file by going to the Serialized Logistics application --> Transfers --> Outbound external --> Transfers page. If the client is a partner in Movilitas.Cloud, the client automatically receives the EPCIS file. Otherwise, you need to send the EPCIS file outside Movilitas.Cloud.
Shipping to the UAE*	An EPCIS 1.2 file (manufacturing report) is sent to Tatmeen on behalf of the supplier (MAH). A log about the message is created on the Tatmeen regulatory channel associated with the supplier (MAH). If the shipment contains more than 50,000 items, the system splits the shipment into multiple EPCIS 1.2 files (messages). Each file describes a top-level parent and its hierarchy. If a top-level parent contains 50,000 or more items, it is not possible to ship any item from the shipment and the mobile application displays the following error message: Limit Exceeded! Number of items being shipped exceeds the allowed shipping limit toward Tatmeen. The limit of 50,000 items per EPCIS file comes from Tatmeen. Movilitas.Cloud applies the limit to comply with the requirements in Tatmeen. Shipping a large number of items might take some time and can lead to a timeout in the mobile application. Do not ship the items again because the transfer and the EPCIS message to Tatmeen are being created in the background. If an issue occurs with the shipment, a notification email is sent to the email address given on the Tatmeen regulatory channel.
Shipping within Saudi Arabia*	The following messages are sent to SFDA RSD: Dispatch - An XML file in a SOAP envelope that describes the lowest level of trade items that are shipped within Saudi Arabia. Package Upload - An EPCIS file that describes the complete shipment including master data, sender/receiver, and events. The EPCIS file is uploaded to SFDA RSD as a ZIP file. A separate log is created per message on the SFDA regulatory channel associated with the warehouse of the operator.
Shipping from Saudi Arabia to another country*	The following message is sent to SFDA RSD: Export - An XML file in a SOAP envelope that describes the lowest level of trade items that are shipped from Saudi Arabia to another country. A log is created per message on the SFDA regulatory channel associated with the warehouse of the operator.
NMVS (Arvato)	If the client is located in a non-FMD country (outside Europe), the packs are exported and their status is set to Exported in the NMVS after submitting the shipping. If the product is known in the NMVS, a bulk transaction is performed towards the NMVS. Once the bulk transaction is processed, Movilitas.Cloud sends an email with the result to all administrators of the tenant and to the operator who performed the action. The transaction details are available under the Reports & Analysis application > FMD > Bulk responses tab. If the product is not known in the NMVS (multi-country pack), a single transaction is performed per pack towards the NMVS. The transactions are forwarded to the other, fulfilling NMVS through the EU Hub. Once all transactions are processed, the application collects the errors (if any) and sends a summary email about the errors to all administrators of the tenant and to the operator who performed the action. The details of each transaction are available under the Reports & Analysis application > FMD > Scans tab.

*The transfer is a 3PL activity on behalf of a supplier that is the Marketing Authorization Holder (MAH) of the shipped items.

**The transfer is made by a distributor that sells products to its clients.

(FMD Europe only) If an Arvato regulatory channel is set and the FMD verification on outbound checkbox is selected for the warehouse, the scanned item is verified against the NMVS. If the item is valid (commissioned) but there is a warning from the NMVS, the application displays the warning message from the NMVS also. The warning does not block you from shipping the item. If the item is decommissioned or there is an issue with the item, the application displays a red icon with an appropriate message and stops the scanning process so that you can put the item away. When an alert is raised, the application informs the user about it. To continue scanning, remove the item that is highlighted in red. It is not possible to scan a container (SSCC). Each scanned item is automatically linked to the related line item. When scanning a container (SSCC) or a parent trade item, the application goes down to the trade item level that has the product code of the line item and links those trade items to the line item. All trade items are automatically organized into the relevant line item. If the scanned container or parent trade item is not known, the application displays an error message and does not allow scanning until the user removes the item that causes the issue. If the scanned trade item or any of its children does not match any line item, the application displays an error message and does not allow scanning until the user removes the trade item that causes the issue. If there is a trade item below the scanned container (SSCC) that does not match any line item, the application displays an error message and does not add anything from the container (SSCC). If auto-unpack during shipping is activated at the warehouse level, the scanned item has a parent, and the hierarchy is known in Movilitas.Cloud, the application unpacks the item in the background. All parent trade items are dissolved in the hierarchy and optionally, the parent container(s) (SSCCs) can be also dissolved. These actions are performed on Movilitas.Cloud database only and the event is not sent to an external system. If auto-unpack during shipping is not activated at the warehouse level and the scanned item has a parent, the application displays a red icon with an appropriate message and stops the scanning process until the item is removed from the list. When you finished scanning the items, you can complete all the line items at once by selecting Complete on the Free scanning page. However, you can also complete the line items when shipping the order. In the line item view, you can verify the assigned trade items and the parent container(s) (SSCC(s)) with hierarchy (if any).

To ship the delivery (and the order), all line items must be completed, even if a line item does not have any scanned or entered items. After clicking Yes, all line items are completed and the delivery (together with the order) is shipped.
When shipping is successful, the application displays a status message. The order with the delivery ID is shipped. You cannot scan more items or enter further amounts for the shipped delivery.

The following table summarizes the system actions based on the business case or connection:

Business case/Connection	System Action
General	A transfer is created with the details in Movilitas.Cloud. You can check it by going to the Serialized Logistics application --> Transfers --> Outbound external --> Orders page. Once an item is shipped, it is not in possession and it is not possible to perform an action on it until the item is received.
Shipping to the USA with connection to SAP ICH*	An EPCIS file is generated and sent through the SAP ICH channel that is configured for the supplier. The event is recorded as a DSCSA shipping event on the SAP ICH channel.
NMVS (Arvato)	If the client is located in a non-FMD country (outside Europe), the packs are exported and their status is set to Exported in the NMVS after submitting the shipping. If the product is known in the NMVS, a bulk transaction is performed towards the NMVS. Once the bulk transaction is processed, Movilitas.Cloud sends an email with the result to all administrators of the tenant and to the operator who performed the action. The transaction details are available under the Reports & Analysis application > FMD > Bulk responses tab. If the product is not known in the NMVS (multi-country pack), a single transaction is performed per pack towards the NMVS. The transactions are forwarded to the other, fulfilling NMVS through the EU Hub. Once all transactions are processed, the application collects the errors (if any) and sends a summary email about the errors to all administrators of the tenant and to the operator who performed the action. The details of each transaction are available under the Reports & Analysis application > FMD > Scans tab.

*The shipping is a 3PL activity on behalf of the supplier of the products.
