# Intelligent Shipper Containerisation API / A-Scan

[Containerisation API Specification Document](https://kb.intersoft.co.uk/hubfs/INTELL~1-1.pdf?hsLang=en)describes the Intelligent Shipper Containerisation / A-Scan APIs, which allow shipments to be grouped into containers. This is so that the shipments in the container are grouped together in Intelligent Shipper, and the shipments can all be manifested at once by closing the container.
