<p class="MsoNormal">Hi All,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am interested in learning more about how other institutions handle container profiles for uniquely sized containers. We have a list of the most commonly used container profiles in our repository, and our goal is to keep the number of
container profiles to a minimum (maybe 12-15). We have quite a few uniquely sized containers that we will
<i>not</i> be creating container profiles for (i.e. custom boxes, 3-D artifacts, etc.). How have others approached these oddball containers? Is it better to create a single container profile for “unique containers” and assign that profile to all oddballs regardless
of actual dimensions, so that they can be grouped together for reports? Or are there advantages to not assigning a container profile at all to unique containers? If you’re willing to share your container profiles list, that would also be helpful. Thanks for
helping us to weigh the options!<o:p></o:p></p>
