I am not all that familiar with Bulk Allocation. Agents on the other hand.

I have used the For Each in several instances and it works very well. There are a few things you need to be aware of though:

1) If you select the CREATE_NEW_PROCESS option in the Agent Action, this may have a significant impact on performance. If you are running the agent during Peak time, be very careful with how you handle this.

2) Running this process from the agent as a bulk process, rather than Bulk Allocation, allows you to set up error handling from within the agent.

3) The Bulk Allocation process appears to look at Shipments with a status Type of ALLOCATION_SHIPMENT and a status value ALLOCATION_SHIPMENT_NOT_ALLOCATED. Any shipment that meets this criterion will be picked up.

Not sure if this helps. Hope it does though. Let me know if you have any further questions,

Thanks and regards,
