ShipMonk aisle manifest-close clock is not ShipBob FC outbound cut

How to run thisStock / inventory3 steps
CalculatorShipMonk manifest-close lag · Calculator lives in the articleOpen

Open a ShipMonk aisle pick-face cut. Mark finalize day. Mark open day. Subtract. Keep manifests beside the span so cut width stays honest. That span is SM aisle-close days.

Pair: Manifest-close lag on Stock. ShipBob twin: SB FC-close. Cross-dock twin: SM cross-dock.

Aisle pick-face cut fields

Open day — Day ShipMonk opened the aisle outbound manifest on that pick-face cut.

Close day — Day that aisle outbound manifest finalized on the same cut.

Manifests — ShipMonk aisle outbound rows on that open → close slice.

SM aisle-close days = close day − open day. When SM aisle-close days stretch, clear the ShipMonk aisle outbound queue before you pace ads — blank chips stay blank.

Refuse these shortcuts

Refuse inventing SM aisle-close days. Refuse dumping cross-dock or pick-to-ship hours into open/close day boxes. Refuse pasting ShipBob / Fullstack manifest CSVs into ShipMonk pick-face cuts. Refuse fusing aisles when one ShipMonk building owns the outbound pile.

See also: Stock, SB FC-close, SM cross-dock, FS manifest-close.

Procedure

  1. Type open day, close day, and manifests.
  2. Read SM aisle-close days.
