When an item is scanned the user is given the option to create a New Pallet on which the item will be placed. This is done by clicking the 'New Pallet' button which then takes the user to the label print screen. The user can then select the printer from a drop down list or scan a barcode which contains the printer ID to then trigger the pallet label print

Once the pallet label has been printed the item is added to the new pallet. The destination of this pallet is now based on where the scanned item is destined for. Items which are destined for different locations cannot be scanned on to the pallet
