Episode Summary:

​​​​​Join Felipe and his expert guest Marcus Zahn for the seventh Part in this Transportation Management Black Belt Edition Podcast series about the Package Builder. This episode will dive deeper into the core logic by debugging a simple example.

Episode Notes:

The covered topics are:

  • Intro and Summary
  • Debugging Example: Preparation
  • Debugging Example: Initial run without debugging
  • Debugging Example - BUILD_PACKAGES: From beginning up to DETERMINE_CHANGED_ITEMS
