Containers

A container is a unit for carrying a bulk package group. MineMarket creates this package group when the container location is selected. The container cannot be separated from its package group.

The container can be moved via the Container Explorer. Alternatively, the container's package group can be moved via the Movement Explorer, by loading its package group onto a despatch, or by unloading a despatch. Moving a container moves its package group; and moving the package group also moves the container.

Note: An alternative to using the MineMarket container functionality is to create package groups via the Package Group Explorer and assign a container type to the package groups. This alternative is preferable when unique physical shipping containers do not need to be managed and tracked; or if using discrete unit package groups.
