Step-by-step instructions on printing Packing Lists and other Shipping Papers
Once the shipment has been put together and is ready to ship, you can print documents required for shipping by using the Shipping Papers button. The result after clicking this button depends on the requirements of that Trading Partner. For instance, items such as Quick Receives or specialized packing lists, can be found on one Trading Partner’s Shipping Papers screen, but not on others.
From the Customer Shipments menu, click Shipments.
On the Customer Shipments page, select the Advance Shipping Notice (ASN) for which you want to print shipping documents, then click Shipping Papers.
TIPS:
The Shipping Status and Status should be set to All.
Enter the Ship ID or ASN Number that you want to print on the packing list into the Ship ID/ASN Number field.
3. On the View Shipping Papers window, select the documents that you want to print. Use the following report descriptions:
Packing List by Container - Prints a listing by mixed or master serials showing the individual serials underneath each line item; this report can be used to verify loading
Master Packing List - Prints a Master Packing List
Quick Receive Label - Prints special bar code labels as the truck leaves
Build Delivery Batch Labels - Prints labels to be applied when working with sequenced small lot shipments (Honda)
Pick and Load - Prints a list of orders in sequence or reverse sequence for staging and loading
Bill of Lading - Prints the standard Bill of Lading for this shipment complete with legal text
Canada Customs - Prints customs documentation for Canada
US Customer ProForma Invoice - Prints customs ProForma Invoice for US border crossing
4. Click OK to continue.
The next steps depend on the document type you select.
The following visual example assumes that you selected Pick and Load as the Document Type.
NOTE: You may be asked if you wish to preview the report. If you do not want to print the report at this time, click OK and then close the window without printing. You can also print from the Preview screen.
