• Container tracking is enabled in the general settings.
• The needed container types exist — see Location and container types.

2. Click the add button. The Add new containers page opens.
3. Enter the container data and the amount of containers to create.
4. Save. The new containers appear in the list.

Onboard a container

2. Scan the container to register it in oneGRID.
