  3. Scan the order barcode from an Invoice or Packing Slip; if a barcode scanner is not configured, manually enter an order number in the Order field.
    • A list of the line items appears in the Items section.
  1. Scan each item as it is packed.
  • If you do not have a barcode scanner, or if a particular item does not have a barcode label, you can either type in the SKU or double-click in the SKU or Product column of the item’s row to populate the SKU field. You will have to manually update the QTY field or use the Up and Down arrows if more than one unit of the item is packed. Click Log as Packed.
  • There is an option to display an image of the scanned item for an additional confirmation that the proper item is being packed. Images can reside on the Internet on a local drive on the LAN.
  • When using a barcode scanner, set system parameter PackingUseKeypadForQuantity to TRUE to display a keypad to enter the number of units packed when the scanned item has a quantity greater than one. The keypad cannot be used if the item requires the user to enter a serial number when it is packed. Refer to the Use Serial #‘s check box of an item’s inventory record.

4. Print the shipping label.

  • If the destination address is international the UPS, FedEx, ShipRush or DAZzle screen will appear so that the additional customs information can be entered.
  • If system parameter PackingAutoshipWhenCloseBox is set to TRUE, the program automatically sends the print label request to the shipping carrier without the need to click the Print Label button.

Packing by Item

    • Optional: check the Single Item Orders Only box to limit the list of orders to those that do not include any other items.
    • The Print Paperwork screen opens to print Invoices, Packing Slips and/or Shipping labels.
  2. The rest of the packing process is the same as described above.
    • Note that if a barcode scanner is used, the item will have to be scanned twice: once to display the order, and again to pack the item.
