You can use the Reference 1 reference field in the lower left part of the Warehouse screen to include reference information (such as purchase order number) for each shipment in the TNT upload file. The Customer Reference (Reference 1 on the Warehouse screen) provides a method for the customer to identify a particular package as an alternative to the Consignment Number.

Notes:

•If a Package Reference is supplied on the Parcel tab of the Warehouse screen, this  Package Reference preferentially displays as the Customer Reference on the label and reports. If no Package Reference is supplied, then the Customer Reference entered in the Reference 1 field is displayed instead. If no Customer Reference is supplied then the field is left blank.

•The maximum length of any value is 25 characters.

•The Parcel TNT module supports on the Reference 1 reference field on the Warehouse screen. However, you can still use Reference fields 2-5 for internal reporting purposes. This data is stored in the TNT Express SOR database.
