Pasting Standard Box Data

Question: I have a list of cases that I want to add to Quick Pallet Maker but don't want to do it one-by-one. How can this be done?

Answer: Quick Pallet Maker includes an option that allows you to paste tab-delimited data from a spreadsheet or from a text document. To do so, please see the following example. The order of the columns is important:
  • Box Length,
  • Box Width,
  • Box Height,
  • Category (the type that will appear in the standard cases menu),
  • Top to Bottom Compression,
  • Code and
  • Description.
Note that the units are also of importance: if using metric, use mm (not cm) and kg, if using Imperial units, use inches and pounds.
