Printing

Give a station a recognisable name, configure its local printers by document type and route each user's requests to the appropriate station. Courier-label printer choices can be configured separately. Daily operating hours can control when background printing and tracking work runs.

Printing retrieves generated invoice and delivery-note PDFs, receipt images, pick-list PDFs and parcel-identification labels. Each document uses the requesting user's configured station and the station's selected printer for that output type.

Search ordinary print history by document type, reference, user, status and date. Open a selected job's details and request a confirmed reprint through its configured local printer.

The courier queue brings together order references, courier, service, tracking, address and label state. Filters and visible states help staff locate outstanding, completed or failed work and choose the available next action for the selected shipment.

Build shipment files containing the configured address, service, box, weight and collection information, and pass them to the carrier-software input folder. Import eligible tracking replies from its output folder and pass recorded tracking to the linked orders for later marketplace updates.

Retrieve rates for an eligible shipment, review service, charge and delivery-window information, and select the offered quote. Where the carrier requests extra information, complete its input form before confirming the chargeable label purchase and output.

Printing can seek the configured service and buy its offered label automatically when the quote is suitable and needs no further input. Purchased label and tracking information is retained, and eligible order tracking is prepared for marketplace transmission.

Use the returned PDF, image or supported raw label format for physical output. Staff can print an eligible existing purchased label from the queue without buying a replacement, using the configured carrier-printer mapping.

Printing uses recorded hazardous-content details to identify supported marking cases. It can produce a limited-quantity or class and substance-number mark on a separate or fallback printer, or instruct staff to use preprinted marks.

Staff can edit street, city, postcode and country details for an undispatched consignment. Printing checks the related parcels and current label work before permitting the correction, and warns when the shared address also appears on dispatched sibling parcels.

The courier queue provides a cancellation action for an undispatched shipment. API cancellation uses the recorded carrier account; local shipment and tracking records are then cleared where eligible. An uncertain carrier result requires staff confirmation.

Preview eligible parcels for a courier collection within an area or branch, resolve the displayed decisions and optionally record the driver's name. On confirmation, Printing records the collection and the shipped units, removing those units from active inventory. View, print or save the resulting local manifest.

Staff can choose a courier collection date for CSV shipment data. For completed API shipments, local date planning uses branch or courier schedules, cutoffs and non-collection dates to store a proposed collection date.

Printing distinguishes a known purchased label from uncertain physical output, an uncertain CSV handoff and a request that never started. Where the retained evidence permits, recover the paid label's records without purchasing again, confirm whether the exact output was produced, or requeue eligible unfinished work. A late reply after cancellation requires a decision about whether the parcel actually shipped. Amazon quantity disagreement has its own operator decision before work can continue.
