How the warehouse location appears on the Packing Slip

1. When printing a Packing and/or Pick List, select Sort by Location for easier picking.

2. You can choose to sort the location alphabetically (A -> Z) or reverse alphabetical order (Z -> A).

  • When sorting locations, non-alphanumeric values will be organized first, followed by numeric values, and finally alphabetically.
    • Let’s say we have three locations: ABC, 123, and @@@.
    • If we sort them alphabetically on a packing slip, they would appear in the following order: @@@, 123, and ABC
  • The alphabetical sort is not case-sensitive.
    • For example, ABC, Abc, and abc would all be grouped together but not listed in any particular order.
