Understanding Kitting language helps you communicate quickly with both customers and internal support. Here are the most common terms you’ll see:
Case → A shipping unit for packs or trays (e.g., 42cs = 42 cases).
Status → SAP order stage (Shipped, Pending, In Production, Ready to Ship, In Transit, Delivered, Backordered, Confirmed).
Branch → Distribution center location, identified by a code (e.g., C07, C46, C17).
Carrier → Transportation provider (FedEx, UPS, Schneider, DHL, GLS).
FedEx Expedite → Premium shipping option for urgent cases (Yes/No).
Tracking Number → Carrier reference for monitoring shipment progress.
ETA (Estimated Time of Arrival) → Expected delivery date/time for a shipment.
💡 Tip: You can ask Kit about any of these terms directly. For example:
“Kit, what does Backordered mean in SAP?”
“Kit, how do I check branch stock?”
