On this page you can manage the overview of status options for items and transport units in IMMS. For each status, you indicate whether items with this status should appear as available or unavailable in the LMS and whether the particular status is active (i.e., that units can be assigned the status) or inactive. Examples of statuses:
- Ready for shelving
- Shelving in progress
- Shipping
Please note: There is no direct correlation between IMMS and LMS statuses.
