I guess I never noticed this before on the packing slips and not sure if this an EDI thing or not. Some packing slips have a box towards the bottom called mark for. What is this for and where is it coming from?
Mark For is meant to be the final destination of the shipment. Like if you are shipping to a distrubution center and then that package will go from there to a different location.

Does this come from the Sales Order?
It’s at the sales order release level. We use it for at least one prominent massmarket retailer (no free ads for them here LOL) that has consolidation points. Usually we’ll fill a truck with 22 pallets of widgets that’s going to the consolidation point - 5 pallets to their DC #1, 6 pallets to their DC #2, etc.

Or a Freight Forwarder if you’re shipping internationally.
