 Palletization reduces the amount of scanning by allowing assets to be sorted into a container and then using the container's barcode for any other actions, instead of needing to scan each individual asset. For example, you may load your assets onto pallets for delivery. Without Palletization, you would need to stage all of those assets first, then load the truck by scanning each individual asset. With Palletization, you can assign the assets to a container, and then during the loading process, scan the containers instead of the individual assets.

-===Why You Need It===
+===Why You Need It=== <!--T:2-->
 You palletize assets in your physical process and would like accurate parity within the TrackAbout system.  You would like to reduce the number of scans needed to perform actions on assets grouped together.
 NOTE: Palletization is used for assets that are only in a container for a short amount of time. To manage assets that are semi-permanently bound together, please see the [[Make Pack|Pack]] page.
-==How it works==
+==How it works== <!--T:4-->
 The use of Palletization involves a process of sorting the assets to a container, using the container barcode to perform actions on the assets inside the container, then disassociating the assets from the container. To add the assets to a container, use the Sort Container or Sort for Delivery action (see below). To remove an asset from a container, scan an individual asset, or use the Restart Container or Empty Container action.
 The following shows the actions that are used with Palletization:

-NOTE: Palletization is a different concept than that of a "Pack". More than one cylinder, piped or manifolded together, makes a pack, bundle or cluster.
+NOTE: Palletization is used for assets that are only in a container for a short amount of time. To manage assets that are semi-permanently bound together, please see the [[Make Pack|Pack]] page.
