Aggregation Event
When multiple physical products are grouped into a single higher-level unit, such as grouping cases onto a pallet, the event is recorded as an aggregation event
. Aggregation events are indicated by the type AggregationEvent
, the action of add
, the business step of packing
and the disposition of active
.
Below is an example of an aggregation event whose master data is defined in the Wild-Caught Master Data article.
See Aggregation vs Commingling vs Processing to learn about the differences between aggregation, commingling, and processing events.
