Introduction

Various flags can be displayed for a Shipment and Movement that indicate certain status-type information. A Shipment can display a flag for being over-weight, over-dimension, contains hazardous items, or contains special instructions.

These flags are shown on the Movement/Shipment Summary page under a Flags column. This column is shown if at least one Shipment or one Movement on the page has a flag set.
