Use cases: I want to:
Quickly establish a chain of custody for a delivery without needing to log every granular, step-by-step item movement or process.
Attach a predefined supply chain model directly to a delivery to generate a simplified transactional map.
Visualise the mapped journey of the delivery based on its assigned supply chain template.
By building a static supply chain template and attaching it directly to a delivery, you can instantly map the transaction's overarching journey.
Follow the steps below to map a simplified transactional supply chain.
1. Define the Supply Chain Template
First, build the static blueprint that represents the expected flow of your goods from source to destination.
Add Supply Chains: Learn how to configure a static supply chain model by selecting the sequence of linked locations involved in this specific route.
2. Apply the Template to a Delivery
When a delivery occurs, you can bypass complex item tracking by applying your predefined supply chain template directly to the delivery record.
Add Deliveries: Follow the guide to log a new delivery. Pay special attention to the third step of this process, which explains how to attach your previously created static supply chain directly to the delivery. This action automatically links the overarching chain of custody to the transaction.
3. View the Mapped Journey
Once the template is attached to the delivery, you can view the resulting supply chain to verify the mapped flow.
Delivery Supply Chain: Discover how to access the visual supply chain map for that specific delivery. It will display the simplified, end-to-end journey based on the static supply chain you attached during the delivery setup.
