Answer 9

Heidita,

I looked at the definition of Channel-fill for mobiles which relates to content being uploaded.
On the other hand the statement is about shipments (presumably of products) in which case the reference to channel fill as content does not make any sense to me.

In the mobile business channels are those businesses that sell things for you but that do not fill the orders directly through suplying their own stock. So if I am a mobile shop acting as an agent for a telephone company mobile plans and the phone is supplied by the phone company, i am a channel for the phone company.
If I follow this through channel-fill in a shipment context might mean those shipments that filled the orders obtained by channels.

And I have no idea how to translate that.
