## How to Attach Branch Short Name as Carton Prefix for Branch wise Cartons?
This tutorial demonstrates how to **append the branch short name to carton numbers** while creating **branch-wise cartons** in Logic ERP. This is especially useful for clear carton identification and inventory tracking across multiple branches.
***
### **Default Behavior**
By default, carton numbers do **not** include branch identification in their prefix. To enable this feature, follow the steps below.
***
### **How to Enable the Setting**
* **Open Logic Admin**.
* Navigate to **Global Settings**.
* Under the **Purchase Options** section, enable:
> **"Attach Branch Short Name to Carton Pre-Fix in case of Branch Wise Cartons"**
* **Save** the settings.
* **Restart** the software for changes to take effect.
***
### **How to Use This Feature**
* Navigate to the **Create Cartons** window.
* Select the appropriate **Set Name**.
* Allocate **quantity per set** as needed.
* Click **Next**, then click on **Create Cartons**.
***
### **Result Preview**
* If you're logged in under the **Head Office** branch, and the short name for this branch is configured as `"HO"`:
> The generated carton numbers will appear as:\
> **HO001, HO002, HO003...**
* The prefix **"HO"** is dynamically attached based on the branch short name configured in the system settings.
***
### **Benefits**
| Feature | Benefit |
| ------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Branch Identification | Each carton clearly shows which branch it belongs to. |
| Easier Tracking & Sorting | Helps in warehouse and logistics operations. |
| Better Reporting | Enables branch-specific analysis of cartons and goods movement. |
***
### **Conclusion**
By appending the branch short name to carton prefixes, Logic ERP allows for clearer identification of cartons, making branch-wise inventory management more streamlined and efficient.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
