# Alternative View of the Packing Screen

The Alternative View of the Packing Screen allows multi-user packing solution where multiple staff members use the same packing station throughout the shift. Unlike the standard packing screen that relies on one person being logged in, this version allows different staff members to identify themselves and pack orders without individual logins.
