5. Can I import items for the loading plan from an Excel file?

Yes, you can. Please use our template, which you can download directly from the application under the Shipments & Reports tab right after clicking on the Import of Shipment button. Then you will be able to choose the template based on the measurement units (Metric or Imperial). Insert the articles, descriptions, dimensions, and constraints of specific items.

Note: Never change the names of the Excel sheet tabs.

You can even keep a list of all the items that you usually load and then only adjust the quantities each time. In that case, before processing the Excel import, uncheck the “Also import items with zero count” option so that the import process will skip the rows with zero-count items.
