During Piece packing, WMS fetches NAS configuration for forward order processing and logs in to NAS at the backend.
As soon as the user scans the item ID for piece packing (or Outward Box ID in case of split-piece packing), the system checks for video capture configuration at the channel level.
If video capture for forward order is set as false by the user, the system continues with normal packing flow without recording the video.
Else, the videos will be recorded as mentioned below for following cases:
With normal Piece Packing
Single Pack Box
For each order, a video will be stored in NAS for complete processing commencing from scanning of first item and completion of packing process.The video recording will commence upon scanning the first item IDs. After scanning and quality checking all the items, the video is temporarily saved in the database when the "Complete Packing" button is clicked.
Upon clicking "Print invoice & shipping label," the video will be captured and stored once again temporarily.
Following AWB scan after invoicing, the final video from item scanning until AWB scan will be transmitted to NAS device. However, if Skip AWB scan configuration is enabled, the final video will be sent to NAS only upon generation of shipping label and invoice.
If screen is refreshed at any point of time, the video saved till then will be sent to NAS for storage.
Multi-Pack Box
Each pack box closure will have a video clip stored at NAS. Invoicing and shipping labels will be included in the last pack box video clip.The video recording will commence upon scanning the first item IDs. Following the scanning and quality check of all items within a pack box, when the user selects 'close box', we store the video up to that point in the database and also transmit it to the NAS device for storage. (Video transmission to NAS will not occur instantly; it will only happen if the screen is refreshed or another issue arises. The video will be saved to the database until that point before being sent).
Likewise, as each pack box is closed, its respective video will be saved. In case, of disturbance, the video will be transmitted to NAS for storage.
In the case of the last pack box, the recorded video will encompass complete packing, invoice, and shipping label generation, as well as an AWB confirmation scan.
ConsequentlyConclusively, there will be an equal number of videos as there are pack boxes; these videos can be accessed at order level. Furthermore, naming conventions for videos will aid in identifying those associated with a particular order.If screen is refreshed at any point of time, the video saved till then will be sent to NAS for storageonly one video created if there is not disturbance in flow. In case there are multiple videos created, the naming of files helps in identification.
With split-piece Packing
Single Pack Box or Multi pack box
The videos will be captured separately based on the action mentioned (scanning Items to Outward Box and Generating invoice/ shipping labels):Scan Item(s) tab: The video recording will commence upon scanning the first item IDs. After scanning and quality-checking all the items when the Create Shipment button is clicked(while generating Outward Box), the video will be saved and sent to NAS device for storage.
For multiple pack-boxes, the video will be stored to NAS for each pack box.Scan Outward Box tab:
The video recording will again commence upon scanning the Box ID. The video is temporarily saved in the database when the "Complete Packing" button is clicked.
Upon clicking "Print invoice & shipping label," the video will be captured and stored once again temporarily.
Following AWB scan after invoicing, the final video from item scanning until AWB scan will be transmitted to NAS device. However, if Skip AWB scan configuration is enabled, the final video will be sent to NAS only upon generation of shipping label and invoice.
In Piece packing, the video is recorded irrespective of the QC status of item being packed.

The video will not be saved at every point; however, there are specific points where the video blob will be saved locally. These include clicking on the Close Box, completing packing, removing a box from shipment, creating a shipment, capturing dimensions, generating an invoice and shipping label, scanning an AWB number, and adding an item to a box. This validity applies to other flows as well.
