Assignment
📝 Important: Box assignment works the same way for all types of containers:
X'Tower, X'Locker, X'Smart, and X'Sling.
The configuration logic remains identical.
Two Configuration Methods
There are now two ways to configure your machine. These methods are detailed below 👇
Whichever method you choose, several box assignment options are available to customize your setup.
You can:
✅ Start from a blank configuration (no item assigned)
🔄 Modify the current configuration
📋 Duplicate a previous configuration to reuse it, with the option to adjust it as needed.
🛠️ Method 1: Manual Box Assignment
🔹 This method, inherited from version V1 of the STS, has been improved to offer more flexibility.
➡️ Go to the STS page of your container to perform the manual assignment.
You will manually choose the item placement within the configuration of your machine.
Perfect for those who want to keep full control! 🧑🔧
✅ This method allows assignment of any type of item:
Basic items 🧤
Items with tracked references 📦🔍
And boxes dedicated to Click & Collect 📲📬
⚙️ Method 2: Automatic Box Assignment
🚀 This feature relies on certain prerequisites:
When creating or modifying an item, you must specify compatible boxes.
For example:For an X'Tower: H0, H1, H2, H3, H4, H2H
For an X'Smart or X'Locker: C1, C2, C3, C4
There must be a sufficient number of available boxes in the machine to assign the desired item.
💡 Optimization Tip
👉 We recommend listing all compatible box sizes for an item, including the larger ones.
For example, a pair of gloves (a small item) can be placed in box H4, but also H3, H2, or H1.
That way, if no H4 box is available, automatic assignment can use the remaining H3 boxes ✅
➡️ Result: optimized space usage and better stock management! 📦🔄
📤 Final Step: Send to STM
🛑 Once the box assignment is complete, don’t forget to click “Send to STM.”
This allows your configuration to be transmitted to the system.
⚠️ Warning: After this action, the configuration of your machine(s) will be locked until it is validated on the container’s STM.
This ensures data consistency between the configuration platform and the connected hardware ✅🔒
