Adding Shipment to Manifest
After creating a Return manifest, next step is to add shipments in that manifest that are ready to receive. This can be done in three ways:
-
Scan the Tracking Number
-
Scan the Shipment Code
-
Scan the Reverse Pickup Code
In shipment summary section, enter or scan the barcode of the Shipment id/AWB No/Reverse Pickup Code.
Every successful entry will add the package to the manifest. Repeated the same way to add more packages that are ready.
For Unidentified Packages:
After creating a return manifest, if the package is unidentified, on scanning the Shipment id/AWB No/Reverse Pickup Code, you will get the below screen with the message UNIDENTIFIED.

Note:
- Only 500 packages can be added as of now in one return manifest.
- The return manifest will have the status as PENDING, if it has any unidentified shipping package. In this case, you cannot close it, before assigning that unidentified shipping package to CIR or RTO.
- If it does not have any unidentified package, you can close the return manifest, and its status will be marked as CLOSED.
