Creating a Return Shipment from Multi-modal Transport

You can create a return shipment from a multi-model shipment using the reverse order of legs on the shipment. To create a return order shipment, an order must be associated with the multi-modal shipment. For this feature, the "Copy Shipment" command is used to swap Ship From and Ship To locations for multi-modal shipments. Additionally, it provides an option for the "Copy Shipment" command to include order information. The order validation logic accommodates the scenario of a reverse order for locations.

Prerequisite: To create a return multi-model shipment, the user must be able to use the "Copy-Shipment" action. The "Swap Shipment Location" flag must be set to "true". Refer to the section about the Actions Menu for more information.
