Packing List

Packing list is essentially a list of all orders with order items. It can be thought off as reverse of Pick List. For example, the Pick List shows all items you need to pick and despatch with orders, whereas packing list displays all orders that need to be despatched with order items under each order line.

Both Pick List and Packing List can be used for optimizing the order fulfilment process.

Using Packing Slip for order fulfilment process.

You can configure packing list to have order id as barcode value in the table.

You can use Despatch Console by scanning the order id and bringing up the order processing screen. Or Despatch Console also allows you to scan all the barcodes and batch process all orders on the list.
