Printing Package Labels

CloudSuite Business provides data that can be read by the BarTender label creation and printing software. To print packing labels, perform these tasks:

Use the Print Package Labels form to specify which package label print jobs to submit to the labeling software to print. Text files are created and placed in the Output Logical Folder that is specified on the Inventory Parameters form.

If packages have been defined for the shipment, the Packages Exist field is selected. If this field is cleared, the Copies and Print Labels By fields are disabled.

  1. On the Print Package Labels form, specify the Printer to which the label is sent.
  2. Specify the Template, which is the filename of the label file created on the Package Label Templates form. Templates are retrieved from the Template Logical Folder that is specified in the Inventory Parameters form.
  3. If packages have been defined, specify the number of copies to print.
  4. Use the Print Labels By field to specify how information is displayed in the grid if packages have been defined:
    • Package/Item/Lot: Each item/lot combination in a package is a separate line in the grid.
    • Package/Item: Each item in a package is a separate line in the grid
    • Package: Each package is a separate line in the grid.
  5. Select the records to print and click Process. The files are created in the output logical folder.

    If the Commander utility is set up to poll the output logical folder and detect new files, the new files are sent to BarTender. BarTender then sends the labels to the printer.
