Purpose

Overview

Use Drop Ship Label Print to output compliance labels for drop-ship orders in conjunction with compatible third-party label generation software (currently BarTender). This window also creates drop ship package records used for creating the compliance labels and processing ASNs.

You can also delete package records for compliance labels, or regenerate package records for compliance labels.

To generate labels, a label definition must exist in External Interface Maintenance.

For information on the label output format, see Package Label Output Format.
