Aggregate Overview

 

The Aggregate message requests that child serial numbers be added/associated to a parent container. This can be used to add items to an existing container, add an item or inner pack to a case, and/or add a case to a pallet. It has no effect on items that are already in the container and any existing child serial number associations in the main container are maintained.

Aggregation operations can only be performed if the serial numbers are in a Commissioned serial number state with an item state of Available, Selected, or Blocked.

By default, TraceLink does not perform this operation if any of the secondary serial numbers are already attached to a container. Set Strict to false to disaggregate items from other containers before adding them to the new parent.

When sending multiple aggregation events (i.e. aggregations, disaggregations, or a combination thereof) at the same time, use the Aggregation Update message instead of individual Aggregation or Disaggregation messages.
