Locations

iPacky Dashboard→Tools→Locations

Here you will see the active Shopify locations for your Shopify store.

You can set up aliases and auto print or emailing of packing slips for new orders.

It’s not possible to change the active location that iPacky uses. This is done when activating the support for Shopify locations in iPacky.

It can look like this:

When entering this screen, iPacky will refresh the list of active locations from Shopify, and add new ones, or delete inactive ones.

Field

Description

Alias

The name of this location to use in iPacky. If not filled out, it will use the Shopify location name. Especially useful if the location name in Shopify is very long.

Visible

If turned on, this location will be visible in iPacky. If turned off, users cannot be assigned to this location. Only applies when support for Shopify locations is activated in iPacky.

Produce packing slip on order creation

This feature allows you to automatically print out, or send an email with the packing slip (not picking list) as an attachment for new orders.

The print will only apply if you have PrintNode installed.

The feature is especially useful if you have a one or more physical shops where orders or a part of an order is going to be picked up, or sent from. That way, the employees in the physical shops will see when a new order comes in that will require their attention.  And also important for quick processing of the order, so that other clients in the physical shop don’t purchase the product before the order is processed.

For this to work, either a printer or an email has to be specified (or both).

Printer for packing slip

If PrintNode is installed, it will show a list of available PrintNode printers. It must be an A4/Letter format printer.

Email

If filled out, iPacky will send an email with the packing slip as a PDF to these emails, separated by semicolon (;). Mostly used if sending email to a printer.

Email subject

The subject to use on the email with the packing slip document attachment. You can use the variable {{orderno}} variable to replace it with the actual order number.

Packing slip

The text for "Packing slip". This can be different than the one set up in Settings->Packing slips

Shipping address

Whether or not to show the customer's name and shipping address on the packing slip. Turning this off can be especially useful in a physical shop environment for example where you don't want shop visitors to see who an order is going to if they happen to see the print-out.

Show logo

Whether or not to show the logo if specified in Packing slip settings in Settings.

Show product barcode text

This feature is useful for showing the barcode text for each product on the order so they can compare it with the product barcode for matching. This is the value of the barcode (like: 0120348), and not the actual barcode.

Show the vendor on the product

This can make it easier to pick the right product since the vendor of the product will also be shown on the product in the packing slip.

Footer text

Whether or not to show the footer text. If turned on, it will show the footer text set in Settings->Packing slips. If the text is specified in the text box below, it will use that one as the footer text on auto-print/email instead of the footer text set in Settings->Packing slips. This is useful for having different text on auto-print, and normal print of packing slips.

Fulfill in bulk

Contact iPacky regarding turning on this feature. For special use only. Only visible if turned on by iPacky.
