Short Shipping describes the process of shipping a shipment without all its items to ensure on-time delivery of the items that are available. This functionality is available through the Consolidate and Ship screen that can be used along with Standard Packing mode to reorganize shipments. You can also use this functionality to move items from one shipment to another. To create a link to the Consolidate and Ship screen, set up the system value EXTRA_EXIT _LINKS_CONFIG as follows:

If you do not want all users to be able to consolidate, only enable this link for the users or user groups that need access. You can use the Consolidate and Ship functionality from any Standard Packing option. For more information, see Consolidate and Ship.
