How to create a number range

Overview​

Creating a number range in RMS is a simple way for you to ensure parcels are automatically routed to the correct warehouse based on the identifiers within their barcodes. The feature allows you to define a destination warehouse, select the relevant product or service, and set the numeric start and end values that make up the range. RMS validates the inputs - ensuring values are numeric, correctly ordered, and non‑overlapping - so you can confidently configure routing rules that keep returns flowing smoothly and accurately.
