Printing labels and packing slips in the PULPO WMS Android App
In the PULPO WMS Android App, as soon as the products are picked, they have to go to the packing position to have the labels and packing slips printed.
At the packing station, one or several boxes can be created, and the labels and packing slips for the boxes will be generated automatically. In case the products from the order are going to be shipped using several boxes, the labels and packing slips will be created for each of them.
The labels can be previewed or printed from the PULPO WMS Android App, and the whole order can be sent to a shipping position by tapping the READY button.
Automated printing of the order documents
You can enable the automated printing of the order-related documents in the Settings / Outgoing/ Printing section.
You can decide on the type of order documents that have to be printed automatically. Automated shipping label printing can be enabled in this section of the settings as well.
Order-related documents (export documents and sales order attachments) are printed when the user accepts a packing task.
Box-related documents (shipping labels and packing slips) are generated and printed after the packing boxes are closed in the PULPO WMS mobile app.
If automated printing is enabled, box labels are printed immediately when the app receives them from the shipping label platform. In the case of the custom labels and packing slips, the app will print them as soon as PULPO WMS generates and sends them to the app.
