# Hold Shipments Manual

Hold Shipments is a functionality in the Intelligent Shipper System that enables Customer users to place shipments on hold up until the point of close out or scheduled close out via clean sweep, so that shipments that are not ready to be shipped can be excluded from the close out process. The held Shipments can either be released to be closed out or can be cancelled if the shipment is no longer required.  
This feature can be used if you find that you are no longer be able to fulfil the shipment that day and need to exclude from the collection manifest or from the close out process, until you are ready to ship the item. Prior to the introduction of this feature you might have to cancel and re-book the shipment when it cannot be fulfilled on the day.
