Shipment data should contain, at minimum, the following fields: order id, material id, material length, material width, material height, material weight, material quantity.

Step 2: Assign input columns

Drag and drop each column name (from the input data) to it's corresponding attribute.

Step 3: Select Overpack Sizes

Add as many (or, as few) overpack box sizes, to be utilized in the simulation.

Length

Width

Height

Max Weight

Sidewall Thickness

Step 4: Run Simulation

Once a data field has been associated with each required field, and, at least, one overpack box has been added, the Run Simulation section will appear.

Select the respective buttons to run the simulation, and to download the simulation results.

The output data contains several items: Order ID, Unique Bin ID (within the respective order), and the x, y, and z coordinates of each item, within the respective overpack box.

A bin id of '0', which will be accompanied by x, y and z values of '-1', indicates an item that was not fit into an overpack box; either add larger overpack boxes , or consider those items for 'free case' shipping.
