Regarding this question...I got a call from Support and for future reference incase someone searches on this topic....
The buttons on the Data Collection (MES) screens are secured via the corresponding menu items in regular Vantage accoring to the user logging in to Vantage. Normally we never deal with menu security for the standard shop floor username (SHOP) so this was not very obvious. It does make sense although now we will have to create different shop floor users to prevent non-shipping people from making packing slips. SHOP & SHIP I suppose.

Subject: [Vantage] [6.10.543] AMM - Customer Shipment from Data Collection Screen
When we demoed AMM using temporary codes we could generate customer shipments from the Shipping/Receiving tab in Shop Data Collection. Since installing the permanent codes in out live database this option if greyed out. Even for myself with wide open system manager access. Even with Shop Employee set with Shipping/receiving check marked.
When we were evaluating AMM it was in a test database copied from our live DB so it should be pretty much the same as the live DB with AMM codes copied to a test DB.
Are we missing something? This was a key selling point for AMM for us.
Thanks,
