Assign bunches to box

there is NO aging control if you scan the bunches. The reason is that farms mostly want to pre-pack Fresh bunches for Box Inventory Storage.

Only solid boxes can be generated with this module, its recommandable to create small (QB's) boxes of 100st only, those are easy to manage.

Its possible that "Hide zero day aging" is active, this will prevent the bunch from being able to scanned into the box. You have to deactivate this setting in order to continue.
