shipment

English to Chinese Marketing Petroleum Eng/Sci
A Shipment record in Essential Suite captures movement of Waste from the point of generation to the Treatment, Storage or Disposal Facility.

When Shipment is used as a noun in Chinese, it is really difficult to find an equivalent word in Chinese, especially in a specific case.

In this case, a shipment means a "package" loaded with waste generated in well drilling, to be treated and sent to disposal.

So I translated it as 废物包, which I think still sounds awkward to me.

Do you have any better translation for this?

Essential Suite is a system used for document management in my company.

钻井废物运送记录

I used to work with localization of SAP in one company. From my experience, the most important thing for a system localization is to make it understandable for users.
So I prefer not to restrict to one word "shippment", and explain the actual content of this record by the translation.
Hope this will offer you a direction of improving it.
