Create a Shipment with Multiple Job Types

We would like to share an important update regarding the "Job Type" selection when creating a new job (shipment) in our upcoming release.

The current single-selection dropdown for "Job Type" will be replaced with multiple selection checkboxes. This enhancement will enable greater flexibility in defining and associating multiple job types with a single job, eliminating the need to combine multiple job types into one name and reducing logical duplicates. This change will give us better control over our "Job Type" naming conventions and usage. The Job Type selection will look as shown below:


Additionally, you will now be able to deselect Job Types from the "Workflow Definition > Services/Job Types" section if you no longer wish to use them for the workflow. Please note that deselecting a Job Type will not affect existing jobs, but it will restrict its use in any new jobs created for that workflow going forward.


As this is a major change, we will be taking care of all dependencies of the existing data. We will inform you once this is rolled out. While we endeavour to cover all use cases, if you notice any discrepancies or issues with the Job Type field, please let us know immediately.

For any questions or concerns, please contact TrakIT Support.
