Select the CHEP pallet 48x40 in on Pallet Dimensions menu and set the maximum load height to 60 inches on Max Load Dimensions.



If you browse through the boxes you can select some that are quite narrow to place them right-side-up and you should also notice that all the checkbox on Dimensions Allowed Vertical to Pallet are checked, therefore they can be placed on any of their sides.



Go to Tools > Pallets Actions > Generate Stable Pallets, this feature suggests the type of placement that the boxes should have in order to make the pallet as stable as possible. This operation uses the default case ratio constraints to determine whether a box placed in one direction is too narrow or too tall.



Now, when you scan through the boxes, you will notice that some of them will be allowed to be laid on their sides (i.e. with length or width vertical to the pallet height) while they will be constrained to be placed upright. The purpose of this is to avoid having the boxes topple during pallet transportation.
NOTE: it is important to know beforehand if the boxes can be placed on their sides in the first place. If not, then the checkboxes for those cases need to be unselected manually.
