# Shipping Manifests

Support for shipping manifests, which are primarily used for the Canada Post carrier, can be enabled in location settings. These manifests differ from shipping labels in that they can be generated to include the shipping information for a group of shipments in a single document and they provide detail about the actual items included in the packages.

## Enable Manifests

The option to enable manifest requirements is set [when configuring a location](/pages/manage-locations) in KCCP.

1. Go to **Main** > **Orders** > **Locations**.
2. Click the location you want to edit to open its settings.
3. In the general Location section, toggle **Requires Manifest** on.<img src="https://mintcdn.com/kibocommerce-59e68a4a/Tt_xgrUgWofJH_Sj/img/shipment-requires-manifest-toggle.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=Tt_xgrUgWofJH_Sj&q=85&s=775dd0d9719cbb86d42fd406d9ce2d21" alt="Close-up of the Requires Manifest toggle in location configurations" width="520" height="272" data-path="img/shipment-requires-manifest-toggle.png" />

After they have been enabled, the **Shipping Manifests** section will be displayed in the navigation menu of the fulfiller interface.

## Print Manifests

No manifests will be ready for generation or printing until there are shipments ready to be handed over to the carrier. During the Ship to Home (STH) fulfillment flow, the Prepare for Shipment step is the trigger that will mark a shipment as ready for the carrier.

1. Enter the usual package information: select a carrier, service type, box type, dimensions and weight, and tracking number(s).

2. Click **Print Shipping Label** to print the label for this individual shipment.<img src="https://mintcdn.com/kibocommerce-59e68a4a/yPPx2ALUR4FHFmVl/img/prepare-for-shipment-manifests.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=yPPx2ALUR4FHFmVl&q=85&s=8213b09db5b92afafb53be5295bc6980" alt="Example of the Prepare for Shipment step" width="1448" height="1036" data-path="img/prepare-for-shipment-manifests.png" />

3. Prepare any other shipments that will be handed over to the same carrier.

4. Go to **Shipping Manifests** > **Create Manifest.**
   * Out of the box, this page displays all prepared shipments. But if desired, you can request [Kibo Support](https://help.kibocommerce.com/) to enable "multi day manifests" in your tenant settings which will add a dropdown menu for **Number of Days** (not shown in Step #5). This will allow you to filter for eligible shipments within a certain time frame, between now and the past 1-7 days. Once this dropdown is enabled, you can change the default selection and maximum number of days in the tenant settings of your [Fulfiller theme](/pages/fulfiller-theme-customization "Fulfiller and Returns Customization"):
     ```
     "ShippingManifests": {
     	"EligibleShipments": {
     		"defaultNumberOfDays": 2,
     		"maxNumberOfDays": 10
     	}
     }
     ```

5. Check the boxes in the righthand column to select all shipments that should be included in the manifest.<img src="https://mintcdn.com/kibocommerce-59e68a4a/5Q3zAz2P5aHMz8ra/img/create-and-print-manifest.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=5Q3zAz2P5aHMz8ra&q=85&s=25532e688fc3f283f9678756f6554f08" alt="The Create Manifests page with a callout for the Create And Print button" width="2688" height="422" data-path="img/create-and-print-manifest.png" />

6. Click **Create And Print**.

7. After confirmation,  a pop-up will display a preview and printing options.<img src="https://mintcdn.com/kibocommerce-59e68a4a/rEvXzvGZITa7EDMq/img/manifest-print-preview.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=rEvXzvGZITa7EDMq&q=85&s=fac3e21bbcd4c81c70bcd97f1c4d5586" alt="Example of a printable PDF" width="1799" height="1226" data-path="img/manifest-print-preview.png" />

## View All Manifests

After shipments have been included in a generated manifest, they will be removed from the table in the Create Manifest page. However, you can still view a record of all past manifests:

1. Go to **Shipping Manifests** > **Shipping Manifests**.
2. Manifests are listed in the below table with basic information about their dates, package count, and shipment count. By default, this page displays manifests from the last 15 days.
3. Click **Reprint** to immediately reprint the manifest document, or click the Manifest ID to view a page with only the details of that manifest. The document can also be printed from this details page.<img src="https://mintcdn.com/kibocommerce-59e68a4a/vX_cCc72BnHnRWN5/img/view-shipping-manifests.png?fit=max&auto=format&n=vX_cCc72BnHnRWN5&q=85&s=fb9a5a68d819a91cb385c0a5e5179cf5" alt="The Shipping Manifests page with example manifests" width="3313" height="557" data-path="img/view-shipping-manifests.png" />
