Fishbowl Mobile Warehouse (FMW) provides users with the ability to Ship Sales Orders directly from a hand-held device. This provides users with the ability to quickly and efficiently move orders out of Fishbowl with less hassle since they do not need to be at the Client. Since the Mobile software acts as a client, orders shipped within the Fishbowl Mobile will auto-update the Fishbowl Server's database.
As of 2011 the new Pack feature will be available to complete from the hand-held device. Within Fishbowl Inventory 2010.5, the order needs to be packed from the Client before it may be shipped with the mobile device, or the Shipping Module Options to Auto Pack Shipments needs to be turned on. With this option turned on, once an order is Picked it will automatically pack and be ready to ship out.

Ship an Order 
To ship an order within Fishbowl Mobile, it must first be packed. This can be done in the Fishbowl Client, or starting with version in Fishbowl Mobile. In the Fishbowl Client there is a an option in the Shipping Module Options to Auto Pack Shipments. This feature may be helpful for those who wish to skip the Packing step and have it done automatically when the Pick has been completed.
- Within Fishbowl Mobile, choose the Ship module. This will display the Ship Module with all of the orders that are packed and waiting to be shipped.
- Highlight the Sales Order to be shipped and choose the Ship button from the top right corner of the screen. If the Shipping option to display confirmation has been turned on, you will need to confirm the order before it will ship. If the option has not been turned on, the order will instantly ship.

Global:
Display a Ship Confirmation: This option provides the user with the ability to display a Ship Confirmation before shipping the order. This option requires an extra step to confirm the order before shipping; however it also can reduce error if an order is selected to ship by accident. The screen shot shown right is the confirmation message displayed when this option is turned on and an order is selected to Ship.
Show Entered Orders: With this option checked, orders with an Entered status (meaning they have not yet been Packed) will appear in the Shipping List.
